What's the ACTUAL point of .22 ?

Target practice, small game hunting, shooting yourself to build immunity to larger calibers, hoarding blocks of to swim in like Scrooge McDuck, the possibilities are endless

>shoot birds

The point is to be larger than .21

Assassinate people
Quite quick follow up shots
Pro hitmen use the .22lr

Because they don't make .23

This. And also dat stoppin powa!

>inb4 .177-muh-capacity-fags

the purpose was to make the smallest mass produced very high quality gun that can actually penetrate someones skin


10/10 would recommend

OP IS A BIRD?!?!?!?

You know why I carry a 22? Cause they don't make a 23!

> hunting rabbits and squirrels
> poaching deer
> practice.
Seriously, if you're not practicing with 22 or getting free ammo from the government, you're wrong.
> killing nazis in hotel lobbies
> mailing to random californians so they freak out

all in all, 10/10 cartridge, inside it's niche.
And as we all know, everything sucks when applied wrong

No, but he’s a faggot.

Because it’s not very cheap to get 500+ rd boxes of .223 and the .22lr is perfect for any game below (and including) coyotes if you don’t suck shit. Plus it’s only as loud as a firecracker.

.

I see what you did there lol

i have this nightmare every so often

That part at the other end of the primer

How do you know he’s not a bird too though

Are you retarded OP? I circled it for you.

Pellets are nice when training on a budget as well.
Only when you want some more range other calibers realy start to make sense for target practice as the ballistics coeficcient and muzzle velocity of .22lr aren`t that great.

Damn thing is broken. It has a hole in it.

That's where you refill the gunpowder from, son.

22 is all you need. Shot placement is king and 22 allows for quicker follow up shots, and more shots with higher capacity.

Only retarded boomer fudds would carry the out dated 9mm.

Do you even know what fudd means?

This is the best thread I've seen on Jow Forums in a long time

>merely pretending

Newfags think it means "old people" now, basically. No point fighting against it, they're just that stupid

Its unironically one of the best cartridges to use a silencer with.

Very quiet.
Silencers are lightweight, small, and cheap (conmpared all other cartridges).
Subsonic/Standard Velocity Ammo is hella cheap when compared to other cartridges.
Still effective against medium game (and people) with proper shot placement and follow up shots.

Favorite cartridge of all time.

Second would be 9mm/.38 for the same reasons, just a bit more expensive, and a bit more effective.
