Topic	What's the deal with extra small calibre, high power rifles?

The practical upshot of this is people have been hit in the ankle with a .22 round and had the thing run straight up their legs thru their organs and rattle around their brain case a few times. Small rounds IMO are far more dangerous than larger rounds because the larger rounds at least remain stable in their trajectories far more readily than unpredictable small calibers at distance. I'll take kinetic energy over hoping that a bullet tumbles. --- XB1: MrMegaNutz Steam: Kennetic <cite>XlaxJynx007 posted [p:887533355] in What's the...
