From WIKI, the Archduke was killed by a 380 ACP:
"The latter stepped forward and fired two shots from a distance of about one and a half metres (4.9 feet) using a Belgian-made 9×17mm (.380 ACP) Fabrique Nationale model 1910 semi-automatic pistol.[citation needed] Pistol serial numbers 19074, 19075, 19120 and 19126 were supplied to the assassins; Princip used #19074."
I believe the Browning 1910 as also available in 32 acp -- but not in 22.
So one could argue that the 380 ACP has been responsible for more shooting deaths than any other caliber -- given that this one shooting started WWI.
