Glad you're okay. :hug:






I would guess the shooter was mabye 100-150 yards away and shot at somebody and missed. A .22 bullet fired level from chest height would drop a couple-three feet by the time it was a hundred or so yards out. Would also explain the last of penetration.


I know from personal experience that a .22 fired from a pistol will pentrate one side of a 55-gallon drum at point-blank range, so your shooter was not close.


Jeez.
