Default RE: What do you use a .22 for?

U CAN USE IT FOR ALMOST ANY SMALL GAME! i shot a coyote at 81.7 yards w/ my .22LRand had 60gr bullets and it died in its traks. i can shoot squirrels out to 300 yards w/ the supermax bullets and rabbits 2. groundhogs u may shoot out to 100 yarsd w/ regular ammo but if u get supermax bullets from cabelas then its more like 150 yards. coyotes i would use 60gr bullets or supermax bullets out to about 100 yards. the bullets im talking about u can order onlien from cabelas. raccoons u can shoot out to 125 yds about. muskrat also 125. i kno wat i am talking about from expeirence. i have shot all these animals at my reccomended range except the coyote at 100 yarsd but would not b afraid 2 try it. but wat u do need is a super accurate .22 like mine. i get 1/2" groups at 200 yards w/ standard bullets. and the gun only cost me $130 and i bought it used. but try to get a new 1 if u can. if u already have a good one then good luck and spend a couple extra bucks on the 60gr bullets and supermax bullets that go 1,750fps. they will kicka** and are definitely worth it.
