If I ever get charged by a horde of peeps I know what to use now!
But kidding aside,if one has knowledge of animal anatomy, can pick shorscarefully, exercising both restraint and good marksmanship, .22 LR solids are effectlive to slaughter most livestock animals, and in a pinch will serve on deer sized game or for personal defence. If a .22 is all you have, get close, shoot well, and make the most of it.

So, the mighty 22RF manages to penetrate 3 marshmallows. I'm not really surprised, marshmallows are light and tenacious. The round will easily pass right through a rabbit and kill another sitting behind it, which is all we need to know.
I actually doubt that HMR would do any better despite having nearly three times the muzzle energy, because it fragments so easily. HMR often doesn't exit a rabbit head or body.

OH RIGHT!!! PEEPS!!! I thought that was about being cool and referring to friends, e.g. people, as peeps. Like how little teenagers say stuff like "I'm going out with my peeps" or I'm hanging with my peeps". That makes much more sense now!
