I'll tell you guys what. I'll put up $5 to everyone willing to stand 10 yards from a brown bear and shoot it with a .22 LR. It will be DRT, right? No worries then. Easy money.

I'll use a .50 BMG and do it for $1. That sounds fair. There's no difference between the two is there? Come to think of it I'd prefer a 20mm cannon. After all they both start with a 2. And you guys will be getting 5 times as much as me for your effort. I'll only pay out if you live though.

We could talk about all those military forces that use the mighty .22. Wait. Ooops! I forgot, there aren't any. Does anyone know why that is? Anybody? After all a .22 is just as effective as a .223, right? They both start with a 2 after all. And the .223 really isn't any bigger in diameter than a .22 LR, right? But for some reason army guys just don't use the .22. Think how much money we could save on ammo if we gave all our soldiers .22's. I think I'll write a letter to Dear Leader. You should too.

And yes, yes, yes I know all about those Mossad guys who used .22's as sniper weapons. But didn't I say you could kill people if you had time to aim and pick a perfect shot with a .22? Sure I did. I guess they are just as effective as every other caliber after all. You guys should sell all your large caliber weapons and use nothing but .22's for SD. Use shorts while you're at it. I saw people talking how they were effective too.

There. It's settled.
