While there are obviously better calibers, I hypothetically sometimes have an internal dialog with myself about high-cap .22lr semi-autos for defense. A single .22lr isn't going to stop anyone in their tracks...but a 25-30rd mag of these little hornets isn't something I'd want to be hit with.
The combination of extreme control, rapid fire accuracy and capacity don't seem so bad? My modern .22lr rifles have been pretty reliable. I can't remember the last time I experienced a stoppage in my Sig 522 or HK MP5-22.
That said, I have other calibers at my disposal, but if it's all I had I wouldn't feel that bad.
