Most shooters say they like more power in their rifles and handguns, but their buying habits show they overwhelmingly prefer less power — that is, in total rounds sold, .22-caliber firearms and ammunition dominate cartridge sales figures. Likewise, in The Shooter’s Log many of the most popular articles we’ve published covered firearms and ammunition of the various .22-caliber chamberings, including the 5.7×28 FN (.220), .22 LR (.223), .22 WMR (.224), and .223 Remington. (.224). Here are the most popular items:

  1. While you have done nicely at rating some items, the claim “buying habits show they overwhelmingly prefer less power” is a fallacy. The only reason so many 22 rounds are sold is due to price per round, not preference of caliber. If ammunition was free or all the same price per round, you’d very likely see large calibers moving off shelves much more than 22
