So what's the preferred ammo in 22 LR's for gophers, the faster 36 grain hollow points, or plain 'ol 40 lead round nose?
Not counting the availability and/or accuracy side of it.....
HP's kill way better and have the audible thump.
for a 22 LR, I always go for head shots....the CZ 452 is pretty capable of doing that, regardless of the type or brand of ammo...
4 x 16 scope on top, will do it all day long out to 125 yds...
no red mist, instead they will flop around like a fish out of water, for close to a 20 to 30 yd radius at times....
fun times!
