FWIW, I've killed perhaps 2 dozen whitetails with various 22 cals from LR to Swift. Never lost a single one. In times past, the Hornet was a favorite of Alaskan natives because of its accuracy, light weight and low cost. But not usually for bears....

You can lead a man to logic but you can't make him think. NRA Life since 1976. God bless America!
