    . 22 long rifle is all you need for small game. . . Weapon of choice? I use an AR-7 or a Ruger 10-22. . . and $430 for a scope? Snort. . . chuckle. . . guffaw. LoL

    (Let’s all agree to ignore that first answer, although some kind of hunting is obviously involved! That disorder is similar to the one where a person can’t pee unless someone is watching. Both of which are similar to wackos planting illegal video cameras in people’s private areas and then putting it on the internet. ).
    I see generally two schools of thought on using the smaller calibers on small game. One is classical varminting, with anything up to and including the 243 or whatever, being used at great distances, perhaps as a substitute for stalking. The other use is typified by very youthful hunters whose first gun is a 22LR with a cheap scope on it. The game therein available in a practical sense, has to be within the 75 yards or so it is usually easily possible to stalk to. It all works out as that is the practical limit of the rig described! From there, the emerging PH either “goes centerfire”, or lingers with the rimfire magnums, possibly both! (It’s all good!) As a kid in the 1950’s only allowed to own a BB gun of my own, I clandestinely borrowed many 22LR’s after the Boy Scouts taught me to shoot. Later, in the late 1970’s, in an attempt to relive my youth, I got a Ruger 10-22, and put the cheapest scope available on it, for personal authenticity. I spent a summer in the mountains living off ground squirrel meat tainted with Bubonic Plague, which I killed by boiling, and was careful not to nick myself cleaning them! (I had some Terramycin in the first aid kit in case things went badly. ) I used CCI minimag hollowpoints, the Stingers destroying too much meat. After that, preserving in canning jars all the venison legally takeable, served my needs, using a variety of centerfire ordnance. For a generous overview of hunting info, check my blog.
