ArchAngel,
I slap-dog forgot about the Velocitor ammo. Great idea!
I like the Stingers, tho. Yes, they are light bullets, but I've never had any problem with them taking down what I was shooting. Granted: I have NEVER used them for self-defense - unless you count that feral armadillo that charged me.
FWIW, we used to butcher 500+ pound steers and 300+ pound hogs with a single .22LR "solid" right between the eyes. In all my years, we only had to shoot two more than once, and both times it was because the animal jerked just as the trigger was squeezed, so instead of the bullet striking where it was supposed to go, it went elsewhere. Not arguing that the HPs are more potent for self-defense...just making an observation.
