It sure can! Cajun gator hunters in Louisiana use .22LR and .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire to dispatch the gators with head shots before bringing them into the boats. A .22 is no joke. The high velocity fired from a rifle can penetrate 6 inches of pine at short range and has a maximum range of a mile. the .22 WMR is even more powerful, with almost a 2-mile range.

Why is bow season longer than rifle season?
The use of rifles in hunting is far more efficient than using a bow; it it much easier to strike and fatally wound a deer with a rifle than with a bow. As such over a set period of time more animals could be killed with a rifle than with a bow. If rifle season was as long as bow season many more deer would be bagged, which would put a strain on the deer population. Thus, bow season is longer than rifle season because rifle hunting does much more "damage" than does bow season.
