People are squishy. You can outright kill a person with .22 subsonic which is great for squirrels.

Well... It's not great for the squirrels TBF but good for the hunting anyway.

Is .22 good for squirrels?

.22 is pretty much the only round you can use for squirrel wtf are you talking about

edit: I've had coffee and get the joke now
