From a deep sleep at 3am after a couple beers the night before, I'm reaching for my 10/22 loaded with quality ammo, for a bump in the night. To increase my odds of actually protecting my family, I want to use the easiest tool to get rapid shots on target with the least muzzle blast and noise. Giving myself the best chance I can to overcome the fogginess of sleep and disorientation of adrenaline and gunfire in the dark, is my priority. I have no problem with my man card, and I keep my 10/22 just as well maintained as my carry guns. I hope I never have to find out if my choice is the best for me.

Muzzle flash is a thing brother. My 10-22 is pretty easy on the eyes in the dark.

I knew an old Gentleman Who only owned a .22 LR Remington repeater rifle and a 410 single shot shot gun . The 410 was for hunting ( slugs for deer . shot shells for birds and small game ) and The .22 Repeater was for defending his home and property . One night some wannabe gang bangers thought his home would be easy prey for a home invasion : 2 were killed and one was paralyzed by that .22 Long Rifle .

I have been carrying for more than 30 years. Even before it was cool. It is not my only carry but I do carry a 22LR from time to time. Most of the time it is my Smith and Wesson model 63. When carrying a 22lr nothing beats a good revolver. Now this is my way of thinking. First of all, everyone thinks that the only way to defend yourself it to Kill, Kill, Kill. That is not true. To defend yourself means that you make it stop. You don't always have to kill a person to make the threat stop. Second. If I am going to a place that may have a large amount of people, I may intentionally carry a 22. Simply because if I miss or a bullet passes through and hits someone it is not intended, the chance of killing an innocent person is greatly reduced. You always have to be mindful of your surroundings. I would not be able to live with a passthrough killing an innocent kid. By the way, the best placed 22 LR is not the head. Gut shots just below the belly button, neck shots to sever the spine and heart shots are always the best. Now if you are confident enough to hit the eye socket, go for it. Your threat will end. Now this is not only true for 22lr. This goes for all handguns. Even a 357 mag. Shot placement is always key.

As a person who carries a 22 often, because I have a need for deep concealment, I will say. It's a tool and you have to know how to use it. Practice often and shot placement is important to incapacitate. I dont really like to talk about it on youtube, but I have only used a gun once in self defense, in my front yard. I walked out the door to go to work and there was the threat right now. All I had on me was my tiny NAA 22LR with a 1 1/4" barrel. I was loaded with CCI Velocitors.

When it comes to wound dynamics, Brother, there is no one I trust more. Thanks for the discussion. I am used to shooting controversial cartridges (.22 LR, .30 Carbine), but I agree .22 LR is not the best choice for defensive use. That said, I have heard good things about the Stinger, but I am also curious about how the Velocitor, the CCI SGB (Small Game Bullet, a hunting flatpoint), and the Federal Punch all compare to each other. One thought about using the cartridges indoors, though, is hearing damage. I wonder if the .22LR might be kinder to the ears than more powerful handgun rounds. I really hope someday the suppressor is reclassified as Safety Equipment instead of the machinegun/destructive device restrictions we now face.

You covered things excellently. Reliability of the rim fire cartridge is my biggest concern. In all cases, we're playing the odds. Having a firearm allows a person to display it to a threat. That will cause a portion (NOT all) of threats to back down with no shots fired. If it needs to be used, the noise alone will deter another portion. Pain (if they feel it) can drive off another portion. All of those things help with the odds. But we've all seen the video of the Maryland officer who shot a deranged man multiple times in the chest, at arms length, with a .40 loaded with (I think) JHP Gold Dots. Powerful round, excellent bullet, shot placement that should be extremely effective and the guy kept hitting the cop. So, we do our best to shift the odds in our favor and keep our fingers crossed. If a .22 is all that a person can handle then their odds are much higher than somebody who is reduced to screaming loudly.

Being comfortable and somewhat proficient with your firearm is the first step and is very important. Starting with a small caliber and working up from there to find the comfort and proficiency level would be a great way to go in my opinion. If that level is no more than a .22 then well placed shots from that .22 might be what is needed to stop the threat if and when the time comes.

Thanks for a great discussion. A few thoughts come to mind. One factor that is often neglected in these discussions is muzzle blast. In some ways I think that could be more important tactically than the recoil. The ability to clearly hear what is going on around you after the first shot can be critical especially in an indoor environment where the blast will be magnified. Also if I were using rimfire I would choose an 8 or more shot revolver or a lever action carbine. A failure to fire would only require you to pull the trigger again or rack in the next shot which you are likely to be doing anyway. No special procedure is required. If larger calibers are not possible or desirable for whatever reason the 32s and 38s are a very viable option. A 32 or 38 wad cutter is quite capable and very consistent. Both are low recoil and reasonably low blast especially in the 32s. In a carbine a 32 or 38 is very effective and even quieter for home defense. Another excellent option would be a .410 with buckshot. I suspect that would have better one stop odds than any handgun.

Yes, that is both a fact and an opinion. ☺️ Sharing knowledge based facts is absolutely priceless. 100% agree with .22 being a fantastic training tool. Learning weapon safety, firearm manipulation, and knowing your gear is critical and should be part of everyone's training... Regardless of their background. I have carried a NAA .22 mag all day everyday for many more years than I care to count. It is usually not my primary weapon, but I ALWAYS have it on my person, even though I have a multitude of choices. If I leave my home, I ALWAYS carry my Glock 19... I have carried concealed for more than 40+ years. It is a way of life for me. Having said that, here is my opinion... If I round a corner and suddenly find myself looking down the barrel of a .22 I don't care if it's a lead bullet or a hollow point... That person most definitely has my undivided attention. It doesn't matter what I'm carrying. Every situation has a solution, and requires careful thought to survive. Maintaining a clear head is absolutely critical. If that means giving up my wallet to keep my family safe, then so be it. Knowledge is the key, training is so valuable. Understanding what your weapon will do, must be given a lot of thought. Is a .22 in my pocket better than a .44 magnum left at home... No brainer! I'm rambling, lol 🤣 Thanks again for the great video. Blessings to you and your Family. Peace be with you always.

Recent events lead to to have to considered arming my 78yr old mom who has severe arthritis . One option was my trusty Ruger 10/22 . She has no experience shooting anything but a pellet gun years ago so recoil was important. I figured point and shoot shoot shoot shoot was the key. HOWEVER her hands and wrists are too gone to even work the bolt on the 10/22 in case of malfunction so thats a concern . It will do for now because everything else I own is worse in that area( working slides. levers, pumps) . It is a first for me to see that that can be such a big issue . So I'm trying to fast track getting a .22 magnum revolver with a decent length barrel for her . Or maybe a single shot .410 with a side saddle since working a pump if iffy.

The primary and secondary modcast has a bunch of thing on this. Including tatements of medical professionals who put people back together or take them apart. My understanding at this moment: Pistols make holes. That`s all they do.Hit in one of the appropiate target zones and it will work. If you hit someone but not in the target zone it probably counts as a miss. The only difference i in the big ones like 45 longcolt where the breaking of bones will lead to a significant pain response.

Knew a guy who butchered cattle and hogs hogs weight 250-300 pounds cattle @ 1200 pounds,never needed a second shot,used 22 shorts. Placement is gold but knock down power is important when shtf starts even so placement is important requires practice and 22 lr is modestly priced.

I greatly value these videos! Personally I have different weapons for different jobs. My wife on the other hand cannot operate the shotgun for home defense when I’m gone. So I bought her a Glock 19, still difficult for her to operate, bought her a PCC 9mm, too big of a rifle for her (she is a little lady). So picked up a Ruger Mark IV, she got her hands on that and fell in love with it, it’s her “go to” weapon of choice if there’s a need. Hopefully she never needs to use it. But if she does, the bad guy is gonna have to get past the Belgian Malinois….good luck with that! Lol Thanks again for legitimate knowledge, not opinion or ego. God bless you my brother!

Due to age my wife can no longer handle a 9mm or even a 380. She has trouble with DA triggers but can still rack a slide. Her Glock 19 has been replaced with a Glock 44 for HD along with a 15-22 rifle. She is very good with both and both are loaded with Minimag 40 grain. I am not getting younger either. I sold off my 45 and 40. I keep a Glock 17 and a Mossberg 500 410 bore shotgun loaded with buckshot for HD. I mostly carry a Ruger LCR 38 loaded with 148 grain wadcutters. It is a get off me gun. More important I practice at self defense distances of 0-7 yards. If you are having trouble with recoil in a 9mm try the Norma NXD or Ruger ARX rounds. They also lighten the pistol by a couple ounces. In 60+ years of shooting 22lr I have found that CCI Minimag 40 grain are the most reliable in semi autos. Revolvers I like CCI Velocitors or Aguila Interceptor solids. They would be great in a lever or pump rifle. I don't trust hyper velocity in semi autos. I have not run into any Punch yet locally so no comment. Stingers are great for small pests but not for SD. I consider it one of the worst choices for SD.

You do talk a lot, young man. However, I'm glad I listened and watched this video to its end. Something I picked up on quickly was your firearms handling. Its easy to spot a trained shooter. I am 66 years old...been serious about shooting since I started carrying the 1911 as a young Marine in 1975. Shot IPSC/USPSA and was a NROI certified RO in late 80s to mid 90s. Did about 20 years as an NRA instructor in Colorado. So yeah...I appreciate listening to a shooter. Now for the .22. We have both heard and discussed its merits until its running out the other ear. I always just come back to this. How bad would I feel if you shot me with it? Would I prefer it over a good stick? Thankfully, age has only begun to take its toll and I can still comfortably shoot everything in the safes. Cheers and thanks again.

I've shot groundhog with a Remington 512 at rather close range (less 10 yards), and I've had the bullets not expand. I've also shot a groundhog with a .357 Mag HP in the head (20 feet), and while the bullet obviously went through, when I dug it out of the dirt, it didn't expand, similar to the few times I've used HP's on deer (it only took two deer to make me stop using HP's for pretty much everything)... don't rely on bullets to expand, shoot where it matters, and count on the hole you just poked to work. My experience is that bullets do not perform on real living things the way they do in gel blocks; and too many people forget that the gel blocks were meant to give the FBI and NATO cheap, consistent media to test things in, not to be 100% representative of actual targets. Also, why, at normal civil defense ranges, are you target shooting? you don't need sights to consistently hit a 7" circle at 15 feet... A little practice, and a sidearm that fits you properly, and you don't even need to fully raise and present the gun lol. I help with a "beginner's pistol class" at a local range from time to time, I bring out my repro British Dragoon Pistol or my baby browning clone to demonstrate that you don't need sights to defend yourself. Believe it or not, it's been my experience that it's easier to get new people to put an entire magazine in the torso of a silhouette at 15 feet by teaching ergonomics and point shooting than it is to teach them target shooting (most of the time, it's less than half a box). I've seen people who've been shot / shot people with rifles (including shots to the head that took a chunk of skull with it)... and I'll tell you that they aren't the magic life-switch everyone on the internet likes to talk about vs a pistol lol. S&W's first successful revolver was a pocketable .22 short, and it was well received (to the point Colt had to pull some serious favors/bribes at the patent office to compete), and .32's were all the rage up till the 1940's in world-wide police circles... when did .32, .22, and .25 become "not enough"? When the gun/ammo companies told you it "wasn't enough". The reliability of rimfire issue is overblown, in 30 years, I rarely have had more than 1 bad primer per cheapie box of 500, and I've had bad primers/light strikes with centerfire. As far as nothing is gong to stop a bullet in your house, I've had an ND with a .357 mag, and it went through an interior wall and stopped in a cupboard on the other side of that same wall in the next room after it broke some pyrex dishes...sooo... there's that (it was kinda cool, finding the bullet in the cupboard, clean up sucked lol). In short: the oft regurgitated, seldom substantiated BS from online forums is just that, generally.

I still keep my license up but I got out of the funeral business full time after Covid. I just cover embalming for funeral homes now when somone goes on vacation or something. Honestly, when we get a body we don't know the cause of death is until we fill out the death certificate and send it to the doctor or coroner. They put the cause of death then we file it with vital statistics. Just because they put something down does not mean it is necessarily true. There were cases I think in Florida during Covid when people were killed in motorcycle wrecks and the attending physician put the cause of death as Covid-19. I am very skeptical myself of Covid than the vaccine!

Sufficient depends on the bad guys fortitude unless you shoot multiples to the head....meaning skill and usually Red dot. Sufficient for a teenager to use? Perhaps. Kill? Sure. But goal is quickly stopping deadly actions and even a heart shot may take too long to leak w .22. So multiples into head quickly since some may skim around skull not penetrate. And a lot of .22 deaths are suicides or used to be assassinations so perceptions are skewed. Stay well. It's a trainer and last ditch. .32 better option for recoil sensitive.
