yep it'll liquefy the brain...

IF it penetrates the skull, the .22LR can be as deadly as any other round. It typically won't have the kinetic energy to exit the skull, and will ricochet around through the brain until it expends all of its energy.

It won't actually "liquify" the brain, but it can make an incredible mess nonetheless. This is apparently why many "hits" are done with a .22 at close range.

CC Stingers. That's my Zombie .22 medicine.

And the director of DOD and 300, zack Snyder, IS a gun owner -- but as stated above, the studios always want to increase the "drama" and so request things that don't make sense. A few well equipped gun owners and most Zombie movies would be ten minutes long.

If I recall correctly the chapter in World War Z that tells the story of the air crew member who's plane crashed doing a supply drop describes a specialized .22 carbine type rifle that was made to kill zombies.

For zombies I would like to use the CCI Velocitor, just wish I could find them in bulk.
