This is a really heavily debunked myth and you shouldn't propagate it. Derived from the myth that a .22 round will bounce around in your skull (because it's like a steel box filled with vacuum and the bullet is made of rubber, right?); zero plausibility when applied to body shots.

I've treated literally dozens of GSW's as a Paramedic and Army Medic, I can unequivocally tell you that .22s DO ricochet off bone. This is no myth my friend.
Even high velocity assault rifles like an M16/M4 will ricochet. Slow handguns most certainly will bounce rather than penetrate.
