22 lr dirt penetration

[geologist]

For peony defense I'd go with a shotgun..............................

 

[coleman1495]

Better question is: Why would anyone hate peonies?

 

[I Dont Care About You]

Some days the internet is just ....... inexplicable.

If you shoot at dirt through butter it will go further

 

[call2arms]

Larger caliber is more effective on dirt bags

 

[Big bore dinosaur]

If joe Dirt , shoot frozen dirt.. ďirt would win

Now for some reason I’m picturing someone urinating while holding a firearm deciding to cross the streams…

Actually, all calibers penetrate about the same amount of dirt.
"How to defend yourself against a man armed with a peony. Now you, come at me with this peony."

 

[FatCatsDad]

How many inches of dirt will a 22 lr penetrate?

Freshly tilled, compacted, black loam, red clay.

How long is a piece of string ?

Blue....no red aaaaaaaaahhhhh

 

[RichardSlinger]

"What do you mean? African or European dirt?"

Laden or unladen?

 

[MajorMalcontent]

You hate your peonies? Fair enough, but don’t jump to what you think might be the solution before fully understanding the problem. Have you considered therapy? Stepping away from them for a while? What the root(s) of the problem might be?

If the answer is yes to all these then you might want to consider slugs.


Not the 12ga kind, but the slimy ones; they eat all kinds of #### that people don’t want killed. So they might be an option. If they don’t work, then consider the other slugs. Definitely more effective than the lowly 22lr.

Best of luck, and we all empathize with you.

Could be worse could be lupins...ask dennis moore ....steals from the poor gives to the rich..stupid bxtch.

 

[Caboose]

Before penetrating any dirt a land acknowledgement must be performed...

 

[1oldfart]

and you probably need a ground disturbance permit

 

[threecentsolution]

Over time everything turns to dirt...

In my experience over time everything turns to chit

 

[Grouse Man]

Never thought of using .22 LR as a spade or weedeater.

Dirt . Damp moist dirt.
Because I hate my peonies.

22lr will rattle around inside your sandbag, liquifying everything, and then fly off into space when it finds the entry hole again.
