If you gave a .22 caliber LR with a 12 rnd magazine to a soldier during the Civil War would he prefer it over the musket? Knowing how good of a shot I am I think I would prefer the .22LR with the full confidence of accuracy up to 200 yards....I'd have no problem performing head shots.

I shoot practically every day here, pest control has it's advantages. I'm smoking pigeons ( pig eon as the coon would say ) at 50yrds with .22 shorts free hand in the standing position. Rats and squirrels I'm doing head shots at 20 yards , right between the eyes in sitting position. Raccoons get a short at any distance within 15yrds , beyond that there's no kill power left.

And you should see me with a. 270 WSM, 300 MAG OR .50 CALIBER STEYER HS50 M1.

Go with a shotgun (smooth bore) and you can utilize a variety of rounds; birdshot, buckshot, and numerous variations of slugs.

Some slugs are accurate out to 200 yards. You can easily, and economically reload most of your own shells as well.
