    Yes you can..yes I have, and if it was only legal I'd still do it. I'm with 7mm nut. They do fine for deer if you can shoot.

    There are no bad guns, only bad people.


    I too agree,sometimes the best one for the job is the smallest. L.H.

    As an NRA instructor, I teach with a .22. The students show up with all kinds of stuff, but I teach with a SW model 41.

    Why?

    More concentration on the sights and sight alignment, and then not worrying about recoil.

    Also, I don't think anyone here would want to be on the business end of any .22.

    I traded my two .22's for a pickup awhile ago....I miss those girls.

    Gonna buy two more. I've dropped deer and plenty of game with a .22.

    G'Day folks,
    Many a night has been spent with the family Plinknng (in a 10 metre range under the hallway of my basement) with the little Conical Breach Caps (Dynamint-Nobel 6mm SPITZKUGEL)No powder , just what appears to be a generous blob of priming compound. Easy loading on a little German falling block single shot.
    Loads of fun !!!!![:)]
