I've never owned a gun. We changed that in the middle of January. I went to Cabela's and bought a little Browning Buckmark .22. Now some will say why bother? If you want a gun for home defense you should get a shotgun or at least a bigger caliber. If you want a gun for hunting you need a rifle with a more powerful round. If you're buying for concealed carry, it's probably too bulky.
I didn't buy it for home defense or for hunting or concealed carry. But, if it came down to it, I wouldn't not use it simply because it is a small caliber.
Jensen and I took it out early in February to break it in and kill some rocks. We went to a spot out on Highway 73 (click on the link above.) There was a small pit that had been excavated for some reason. We had some things to shoot at besides rocks, a can , a bottle, a box. After we ran through 300 rounds. We used some “stinger” rounds with muzzle velocity of about 1640 fps. They were lots of fun.
