This however shows that this little round continues to pack a punch out quite a bit further. I wouldn't rely on it for that, but it does add some perspective. I was also involved in a barricade situation a few years ago now. The suspect was armed with a Marlin .22. Our perimeter was between 100 and 120 yards from him. It ended peacefully, but he could have done some damage.

What town do you live in that allows you to put down elk with a .22?
