    Yes you might well drop a wallaby or goat at closer range with a 22 mag - esp I think with the bigger 40-50gr pill rather than the ballistic tip. If that is you happened to chance on one during a bunny shoot...
    But not anyone's caliber of choice for med or bigger animals. I also have a suppressed 243 for that.
