It highlights specific rounds like CCI Velocitor, Winchester Varmint HE, Aguila Interceptor, Hornady Critical Defense (.22 WMR), and Speer Gold Dot (.22 WMR) for their terminal performance characteristics, such as bullet expansion and penetration, particularly from handgun platforms.

TheYankeeMarshal offers a practical perspective on self-defense ammunition, prioritizing penetration over expansion. He argues that concerns about overpenetration with ball ammo are often overstated compared to the risk of missing, and that the difference in wound channel size between non-expanding and expanding bullets may not be as significant as commonly believed. The discussion also touches on regulatory aspects, referencing New Jersey's ban on JHPs.

This video from BROKE BOY'S MANIFESTO tests several popular self-defense quotes involving the .22LR cartridge.
