Head shots?
I shoot a .22WMR, but I'm a bit old school.Quote:

The likelihood that you may find a nice older .22WMR are good though. I bought an older Marlin Bolt action last year from a guy for $110.
At that range? Chest cavity will be fine.Quote:

It will kill them. Probably leave one heck of a hole in the hide though. Given that it's a round primarily designed for mule deer, elk, bear etc it's a bit overkill. But it depends if you are after hides or not.Quote:
