I agree, and yes all head shots on the bigger critters.

I know that day at the barricade there were a few officers that were walking around without cover and I even found myself doing the same a time or two when getting updates from the Sheriff. I can't remember for sure, but this one lasted 6-7 hours. When you are familiar with much bigger cartridges, the .22 can seem somewhat impotent. I did sense an air of "...its just a .22...". Nobody said that of course. The whole situation started off with this guy shooting at his parole officer and deputies that accompanied him to the guys abode. He started shooting at them from inside and had them pinned down until the SWAT team arrived with the APC to get them out. Nice day.

I forgot to mention that many critter, especially big bucks are poached using .22s.
