Greetings!
It seems like the .22 smooth bore would be just the thing for a low-noise "garden gun", shooting both the CCI style and traditional crimped style .22 LR shot shells with far improved patterns over a normal rifled barrel.
Why are they not more popular, especially in semi-rural areas, where firearms discharge for small varmint control is legal, but neighbors are still too close for safety and/or noise concerns with normal loadings?
Thanks,
Hunter
