Doubt it. Numbers are pretty bland.I don’t know, I think there’s a place for it. If someone is going to carry a .22, they might as well carry the most optimized ammo they can get for it. If this is that ammo, so be it.
Maybe they shoulda named it Pinch....
So you’d need a 100rd mag to equal one .45 acp ?Just think if you shot 6 22lr rds from a 3" barrel into a bad guy it adds up to the same power as one 9mm rd.
Give us a range report velocity etc.I received my order today. The sticker is kinda cool

And for the record, I have no intentions on carrying a .22 for self defense. I really don't even have a handgun small enough to do so. I only bought it "just because". What has been said about this being a marketing gimmick, yeah probably. Who knows. Maybe one of my rifles will really like it and it will be good for squirrels & critters alike.
Plus is was available. So why not.
I don't have a chrono but I'm giving a box to an acquaintance who has a blog and they will do a write up on them. I'll report on accuracy when I get a chance to go to the range.Give us a range report velocity etc.
That's what I was using with 40gr HV solid rn. It went through 1.5" of wood at 25 yards I just can't recall what brand it was. Oh it wasn't Winchester or Remington I know that.Wonder if it could play a defensive role in something like a 10/22 understanding while not ideal, it may allow for someone that really can not shoot anything else options.
Directly from Federal. It was $10 a box. With tax and shipping, it was about $40. I decided to spend a little of my stimmy dollars on it. Yeah. It was not a bargain by any means but I decided to splurge a bit.Where did you get it and how badly were you molested for it or was it worse than that?
Out of a handgun or long gun? You'll, of course, get better results with a long gun. Still won't break an adult femur.You would be surprised at what a 40gr HV 22lr can penetration. I had one penetration a 2x4 at 50 yards flat so 1.5" of penetration at 50 yards. I think that would penetration a forehead but I'm no Dr so I don't know how strong and adults forehead really are.
It's BS. Center fire is much more represented.I read somewhere that .22 kills more people every year than any other caliber. I dont know if thats true but..
There is shot placement
Most people that take 2 or 3 .22s to the face will usually cease and desist.
The FIBS syndrome... (F%#K I been shot)
Is a thing. I prefer .45 but if all I had was a .22 I would want the most effective .22s I could get.
