The Tiny Round That Dominates
For a little guy, this round has a lot of energy behind it. This makes it ideal for taking down varmints and small game with finesse.
Here’s some stats on the .22 LR before you buy:
| Grain | Velocity | Energy |
| 40 grain | 1,200 fps | 131 ft/lbs |
| 38 grain | 1,260 fps | 134 ft/lbs |
| 32 grain | 1,430 fps | 141 ft/lbs |
| 31 grain | 1,750 fps | 204 ft/lbs |
| 30 grain | 1,640 fps | 191 ft/lbs |
Even after traveling about 400 yards, the bullet is still (on average) maintaining a 500 fps velocity.
This round is the king of small game hunting and target practice. It’s deceptively classified as a low-powered round, but it’s deadly all the same. The .22 LR often gets overlooked as a home defense option, but in a pinch, it’s still an effective round that will subdue hostile intruders with just a few shots.
Take the AM180, a unique top-loading drum magazine submachine gun (chambered in .22 LR) used by U.S. police forces in the 1960s. It’s a great example for how people have used the .22 round to its full potential. The gun was highly acclaimed for its high fire rate (1,200 rpm), and was perfect for police forces encountering heavily armed suspects. The .22 LR could take down a perp with lower chances of civilian casualties, and cause minimal collateral damage thanks to the lower penetrative power.
