Ow. .22 shotshells are #12. It's like pepper.

If somebody shot me with a .22 shotshell, and I found out. I'd kick their ass.

A little education for subby.

This is a .22 round:

This is birdshot:

They aren't the same thing.

MrSteve007: They aren't the same thing.

I know nothing of guns, but I know enough to read the first couple posts before spouting off at subby.

Little do you know, they can be. They're good for use in a barn that you don't want to leak.

You have not seen ratshot?

I have a box of .22 bird shot in my closet

The pellets travel like 25 feet

FTA:
"After running out of volumes, she picked up his .22 Ruger and started "flinging the revolver around in the air" before pulling back the hammer and fired a shot."

Unless someone can edumacate me on something I have yet to see (which certainly is possible), I highly doubt a .22 Ruger revolver is capable of blasting birdshot.

So my .22 shot rounds are a figment of my imagination? Guess I need some education, too.

I bet that left a bruise, old people bruise easy ya know.

Snake shot.

Hunh, actually - no I never have. I stand corrected. Thank you.

/looks like I have a new project for the weekend
//do they make it for a .38?

Plugs the bum...

Huh huh uhhhh huh huh

Anyone mentioned ratshot yet? I had some in 9MM once, didn't know they made it in .22. Talk about hitting something with bits of sand.

/outside of a short distance

No mention of any children or grandkids.

Bum? Subby sounds fat british.

Those .22 shot shells are commonly referred to as rat shot, or that is what I always heard it called.

Yeah. I read that headline and thought the old geezer got it in the butt. Too many years in England, I guess.

Huh, I didn't know they made those with powder behind them, I'd only used the air rifle ones for rabbit.

I like this peppery lady.

MrSteve007: //do they make it for a .38?

Ive held .22 and .44, so I would imagine it exists. Get some.

dave1y: Funny vid of good ol boy (new window) shooting bees with his rat shot.

jesus.. what an asshole.

Why the hell would he have it loaded with .22 birdshot? It won't do much but make a home invader hop around and go "OW OW OW" for about 10 seconds before they kick your ass.

He probably uses it to kill varmints and then has his 12 gauge for people blasting.

I've seen it first hand in .22, .38, .357, and .44. You may find it in .45 long colt, but I've never personally seem them. Those are probably the only calibers you'd find it in, because they're traditionally revolver calibers. I'd imagine the shape and the soft plastic would make it extremely hard to make them feed reliably in a semi-auto so the odds of a 9mm, 10mm, .40, .45 ACP etc wouldn't be great.

Ahh yes, there's almost always some utterly ignorant Farkspert in a thread like this.

For your edification, 22LR is widely available in rat shot and pigeon shot for use in close quarters against pest animals on farms such as a chicken coop or similar.

I call it snake shot. It works well on rattlers.
