Not sure if I remember right here, but an RAF shooting instructor/range officer, told me many (many) years ago that the .22 rimfires we were using at the time, were lethal up to a mile and had a range of 3 if you just let one go up in the air. He also said that the old lee enfield 303 was lethal up to 3 miles and had a range of 7.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
