    This thread really seems to be about solving a non issue. All centre fires that can legally throw a subsonic .22 cal pill are bolt or lever action. Throwing a pill that almost certainly won't expand like a pure lead hollowpoint 22LR sub will. If centrefire semis were still around, they would not cycle with subs.

    A .22 semi will permit you to rapidly throw 10 x 42 grain lumps of beautifully expanding lead at whatever quarry you are after.

    For a centre fire to be capable of throwing a useful size lump of lead at a pest, you need to be starting at 30 cal.

    Only mtcw.
