My choice.
I keep a 10/22 loaded with a 25-round magazine to deal with racoons getting in my garbage container out in my driveway. Those critters love getting into the garbage. And I have a big hill with woods behind my house that has many of them living there. I actually would not mind them getting into the garbage if they would just eat some of it without spreading it all over "hell's half acre."
Now what if some night I heard something out there and took my little 10-22 loaded with CCI minimags out there to deal with that and it turned out to be the local white trash druggies breaking into my cars parked in the driveway while they were looking for nickels, dimes and quarters to buy more drugs with?
Yes, that's right. They will do hundreds of dollars of damage breaking out car windows just in the hopes of finding a dollar or two of change in the console.
And what if they were armed with a (probably) Saturday night special and shot at me?
I guess in that case I would quickly see just how good the CCI minimags really are while trying to save my life.
Although this is an improbable scenario it could happen in these times in which we live - even in a small Appalachian city like mine due to the number of poor druggies who need money between welfare checks for more nose candy or cannabis.
I don't want to ever be shot at again and I don't want to shoot at anybody (even in self-defense) but I guess a 10-22 loaded with 25 rounds of CCI minimags would be better than nothing. It could even save my life.
