If you are shooting 22's, head shots are usually a 1 shot deal. One shot is hard to locate from the noise, trust me , I know, thank goodness. Ahh,, fantasy is fun, We're all going to drown from Global Warming anyway.

A 22 CB short has just enough power to brain a deer and drop it where it stands, I have done it a couple of times and it is more quiet than most high powered air rifles. One thing is for sure, the barter system would be alive and kickin. I reload my center fires except fpr the SKS and usually keep enough bullets, powder, and primers to load several thousand rounds. I even have stuff for a few calibers that I no longer own. If push comes to shove, I would use the best that I had, whether it is a rifle, bow or butcher knife.

Their way of looking at the sitation is no different than their forfathers 1000 years ago. Primitive skills is a matter of perspective. Man has never been primitive, He has always uesd the cutting edge technology of his time.

Really? I can believe it though. How far away would it be effective? If you had a good steady .22 and knew how to stalk, you could probabaly be better off (you could still hear more deer after a few months of hunting ;) :D) than anyone else. Except for a shotgun, there aren't alot of guns that can kill all sizes of game without wasteing alot of meat.
