I once saw a .22 pellet out of a Benjamin pump go across a garage, contact a piece of wood that I thought was soft pine but turned out to be hard pressed wood, then come back, right into my left eye. Lucky for me, it didn't penetrate, just hurt like hell, and caused a cataract that I had to have removed 40 years later ...
Yup, been there, done that. Once I saw a .22 lead bullet ricochet off of a junked '52 Plymouth hood ornament and smack right back into someone's chest.
Good thing I was wearin' a thick coat.
To help get this thread back on track, I really like my snazzy old S&W K22 copy Taurus .22 revolver. Good old fashioned hi-polished blue finish, target adjustable wide trigger and sights, cocobolo target grips, and can be loaded up with any combination of .22 rimfire ammo of opportunity known to human-kind--short, long, CB cap, CB long, long rifle, snake shot, BB cap, sub-sonic, what have you. Two lb. trigger breaks like a glass swizzle stick.
