    I told a single mom with a small 22 auto that if she ever needed to use it to keep firing until it runs dry then throw it at them.

    You'd be better off and possibly her too, if you taught her to keep her shots between a person upper lip and center line of eyes. .22 LR travels easily through the sinuses into the brain.

    I prefer a bit lower , neck - thorax area. Ya got major blood vessels to/from the brain , spinal cord/brain stem , and throat. They can bleed into their windpipe and drown in their own blood.

    So all that Zombie Apocalypse training was for naught?

    If a zombie ever comes after me , I'll just use my lightsaber and dismember it limb by limb!

    I know , lightsabers don't exist.

    Neither do zombies!

The low velocity combined with the curved nature of the skull often allows slower handgun rounds to "skim" around the exterior surface of the skull resulting in a failure to penetrate. This is exactly what happened to one of the rounds fired in the assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II in Rome in 1981.
    Real men shoot 45s and a 44magnum will take your head klean off(tm). Ain*t no skull skimming. 380s and 25s are for skirts an squirts.
