Especially for some intruder high on drugs. Even a 9mm, you'd still be lacking knockdown power. Once you start looking at .40mm, .45mm, or .357 then you're doing some REAL damage and achieving knock down power.
Just a thought. Something to keep in mind.
eRep eh??

I don't think he'd be using the .22 for anti-personnel, but for a general survival type rifle... small game hunting... that type of stuff.
The 10/22 has a great reputation and a long history. It's very mod friendly and obviously cheap to operate, as bulk .22lr is effing cheap!
I don't have one (yet).
