never used a 22 mag or a 17, but I have killed a bunch of hogs with a .22lr hollow point to the ear hole
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

If im hunting hogs I use a 17 wsm and if im trapping them then its a 22 LR
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

...if somebody would please invent the .22 WSM it would be great. Winchester, I'm looking at you That would be badass but close we will get to it is 22 hornet. I think the gunmakers/ammo companies dont realize there is such a niche market for a powerful rimfire cartridge like a 22 WSM. Alabama isnt the only state that limits small game season hog hunting to rimfire only on its WMA's. I dont think it would ever be a mass market hit, but it would have to be at least as successful as the 17wsm?

You know...they used to make a big rimfire..5mm...i think one or two companies still make ammo...but its hard to come by..findin a 5mm gun is hard too....ive only ever seen one. I may be wrong, but..i think its been like 40 years since they made one...i may be confused tho.

I think the Remington Rifles were models 591 and a 592. circa about 1970 as I remember. You can still get one floating around on Gunbroker or at a gun show. TC Contender barrels are also floating around and yes I think someone is making ammo for them again.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.
