Would it be possible to take out a dinosaur with a .22?
Now I know this is all theoretical but I had a dream last night where there were a group of us in a hut which was something like a school classroom, but it was elevated. I don't know why it was elevated but it was. Just accept it and move on.
We were being attacked by a dinosaur, I don't know exactly what sort but it was something like this one. Obviously it didn't have writing on it's back! It kept poking it's head through a broken panel in the wall, no more of it than that was coming through and it was trying to get us. Whether it's a vegesaurus or not, I don't care but it certainly seemed to be trying to bite us to oblivion. There was a staircase which led to where my gun cabinet is and the only weapon available was a .22 with lots of ammo. We didn't get as far as actually trying to shoot the dinosaur because I woke up. So, for future reference and I know it's all theoretical but would a .22 be enough to take one of these things down? I expect they have quite a strong skull but surely a few rounds through the eyes would get back to the brain and cause it to flop comically on the floor? Remember kids, this is a dream and I don't intend to go running around the neighbourhood looking for long necked dinosaurs to shoot through the eyes!
