I did get shot in my leg with a .32 (sister thought it was unloaded) wasn't bad but I wouldn't do it again. Btw I put her in some classes.
      I couldnt Find the Fresno Bee article with all the details but heres the LA Times version.

                .357sig is a great round and .22 short is an awesome round for shooting in your back yard, much better than a BB gun. So, I have to disagree with your calibers.

                To OP: I say .25, .41, and .45GAP.

                  Beg to differ:

                  KelTech PMR-30, selling for premium over MSRP because demand is so great.

                  Ruger Single Six convertible. I own one. Very nice.

                    .25ACP has its place. In a pocket pistol, .25 and .22LR have the same ballistics- people often quote figures from longer barreled .22 pistols (ever seen a 4" barreled .25? I haven't), but inch for inch, they're a wash.

                    Difference is, centerfire cartridges have more reliable ignition than rimfire. Ideal? Hell no- but if all you can pocket is a .25...

                    .32 used to be a popular police caliber in Europe- I bet .25 and .32 have still put more people in the ground than a lot of large calibers considering all the wars they were used in.

                        10mm is a great hunting round for deer or hog

                            LOL in my backyard, any caliber works, .22 long get's the most action though for pest control

                            .45GAP is a pretty useless round as well

                              Yeah why would anyone put that on the list? Its my CCW round. Seems pretty useful to me.
