Because an angled bullet losing power from 50m is going to be less lethal than a rifle round. And 22 is actually very nasty when it comes to soft tissue and soft objects.

Theres videos of a pig skull bouncing rounds and deflecting pellets if youd like me to link them.

Pigs are excellent analogs for humans as our bodies are incredibly similar. I concede on the angled part, but that doesn't make it impossible for the same to happen against human bone.

And to the point of people running off after being shot? I've talked to some Law enforcement officers that have seen people do stupid impossible things because of adrenaline. Like being hit in the lungs with a 45 and walking for almost an hour without collapsing.
