So, for a personal gun, I have a long barrel 22 target pistol. Holds
15 rounds and I use longs. I am dead on accurate at 150'. It has a
small grip, it is light weight. I like it.

I also have a .22 pistol, with a 4.5" barrel. I love mine. I often
carry it in a thigh holster. I'm 'dead on'-meaning I can put it in a 4"
circle- at about 50 feet, but my barrel is shorter. ;)

People say .22's don't have any stopping power. I understand the
argument but a well placed round to the groin would have pretty good
stopping power, I think.
Just this week an 8 year old shot his father and another man with a .22
rifle. Sad story. Apparently the father had given him the gun and
taught him to shoot it.


I've used all the rest and we currently have a 3030 and a 30-06.
Need a shotgun.

We also need a shotgun...
We got a 308 last year. Officially it belongs to the kid, but he won't
be using it until 2013.
