Years ago I fixed a .38 S&W for a guy. I lived in the city so the best place to test was in my old mans car. I stacked 2x4's on the back floor and leaned over the seat to shoot. Every bullet was stuck in the first 2X4 not even half the depth of the bullets. Great deer gun for some of you. Not far from a .380 in power.
Deer are NOT easy to kill. This is a fully expanded .22 bullet in a deer's neck that I shot with a bow. Turning green so it would most likely die from gangrene. [Linked Image]
You CAN kill a deer with a .22 or .22 mag but can you find it? Only fools do that stuff. Squirrel hunters that see a deer out of season or with a light at night. I can't count the arrows and .22 bullets I found in deer. Healthy until I used the right gun or bow. Two of three arrows found healed in deer chest cavities. [Linked Image]
