When I first read this thread when it was first posted, I knew there would be alot of of people that would not be overly happy with this. But they are right, the 15 22 can kill, but its not gonna be a quick kill everytime. And that is the hunters responsibility to their game, to ensure a fast and as least painfull death as possible. Small game hunts with the 15 22 sure, but a boar.. is well.. a boar. And ot a rabbit or squirrel, or fox.
