    Fieldcraft Lethality of the 22LR- Results!

    Re: Lethality of the 22LR- Results! Yep, subsonic - 1050 fps It's somewhat quiet. In California, we can't have silencer. With a silencer, I would imagine it would be VERY quiet but can't actually test that.

    Re: Lethality of the 22LR- Results! Yeah, I was surprised too with the full penetration. It was a learning experiment for me as well. By the way, I forgot to say that when I tried to open the Turkey after the test, the center was still partially frozen so the rounds would have gone through...
