There are many different variations of .22LR rounds. Some have higher or lower grain bullets, some even have different shapes, and different brands could be higher or lower quality. These factors, along with the distance from the geletin, affect the bullets penetration ability. The length of the barrel of the firearm can also have an affect because shorter barrels don't allow for as high an exit velocity for the projectile.

Is pine bullet proof?

It depends - logically - on the caliber of the bullet, and the thickness of the pine. A deer rifle bullet will penetrate a 2x4 with no difficulty, and may or may not penetrate a 4x4. A .22 will penetrate neither, a .50 machine gun bullet will penetrate an 8x8. Loosely speaking, I would not consider pine to be a bulletproof material.
