Also looking at vapour barrier in addition to insulation which even of rockwool and clear plastic type can vary alot in density and is obvious when you cut it and how much extra material can be stuffed into a space of the less density insulation.

I think drywall with simple insulation vs drywall alone could make quite a difference not only on the type of insulation some being thicker Atleast how much resistance you are getting also considering various types grains jackets barrel lengths and wear and tear I haven’t seen a. 22 penetrative a tree at all barely enough to flatten and stick to a tree at close range vs a tree likely to hurt yourself before the tree they bounce right off.

For those who keep saying that .22LR is not capable:

.22 lr must never be taken for granted. When something has been in continuous use since the mid 1800’s it means it’s kind of perfect.

I would be interested to see if a 22 would penetrate 5-6 walls in an actual house environment. The distance between walls in a house are generally anywhere from 4 to 20 feet apart instead of 3 1/2″ like the picture depicts. As with all firearms they do need to be treated with respect.
