If the "plinking" ammo you are using has an impact force of around 70 ft-lbs it can kill.  (That will put a .22lr through 1 1/2" of plywood).  Pres. Reagan was nearly killed with a .22lr pistol.

I got a great deal from http://www.luckygunner.com/ last June on 40 S&W. 22 cal is high no matter where you go.

Thank you to everyone for giving me a better idea of how much I should probably have on hand for regular use and for SHTF situations.

Never hurts to stockpile ammo when the future is so uncertain.  Ammo: the currency of the new millennium.
