First, see if you can get your hands on a 22 magnum. Second to that,
the two deepest penetrating 22 Long Rifle rounds available are the CCI Velocitor (40 gr HP @ 1435fps per CCI) and the much newer Aquila Interceptor (40 gr Solid at something like 1480 fps) I would go with the most accurate of the two and leave the lightwieght hyper velocity stuff at home. The 40 grainers might give you a little room for error in case you nick a skull bone. The super fragile LW's will likely just come apart and deeply anger the beast IMO, when it comes to headshots only (and this is such a case) I want the heaviest bullet I can get for penetrations sake.
