Don't know about 22lr but I've seen 2 deer shot by a 22WMR and know specifically of another. First 2 were shot by mistake. Friend of mine thought they were squirrels. First one was a spike about 110 lbs or so. He took a Winchester 40gr Hollow Point in the right eye and we found it mushroomed the size of a dime against the back of the skull. Second was a knothead that took the same round between the eyes. You could hold him by the ears and just wallow the skull around. That one went out the back. The third was a mature doe shot under the chin and into the neck. Was told she ran about 50 yds squirtin blood and piled up in a briar patch.
