    .22 isn't the answer, solid , hollow, super sonic , sub sonic they all ricochet ,
    I shot a lot around horses, vine yard infrastructure , sheep, cows and dwellings .
    Only round I would ever use is a 17HMR , suppressed.
    In maybe 15 - 20 k of ammo I might have had 1-2 ricochet.

    I wouldn't use a .22 at all for your situation, quite unsafe and just wait till you get the Vet bill for a shot horse and the cops round for a serious chat, if you excuse the pun, horses for courses and the .22 in this situation isn't it.
    Nesika and rewa like this.
