As a side note: I was asked a similar question when I was at the gun shop and bought my .22mag derringer. A guy in the store wanted to know why I would use a .22 for a BUG. It's not much good..... I say oh yeah.... ask Brady and Ragan what a .22lr can do! End of conversation.
Short equation..... Confidence=Caliber:cool:

Both lived through being shot with one. Ragan was back working the next day.

Yep lived through it ... however it stopped them at the time.. and brady is pretty messed up to this day... and Reagan had to have emergency surgery and several pints of blood. Also working the next day consisted of him dictating and having officials meet with him in his bedroom... he wasn't up and around for about three days...

I wouldn't want to be hit with a .22
