Rimfire firearms are the most finicky and malfunction more often than any larger centerfire firearms. Good luck to her if she ever needs to use that gun in self defense. Unless she can't physically handle anything with more punch carrying a .22 is ridiculous.
Also, shooting someone from 30' away is going to get you in an awful lot of trouble. How can you justify using deadly force at that distance? Unless the other person is shooting at you it would be very difficult to say that you were in imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death from someone 30' away from you. Most self defense shootings take place at distances of around 6 feet.
It's about shot placement...not "how big" the round is.....
I'm 5' 10" 200 lbs....and if that all I had, a .22 would be great....
The gun does absolutely nothing if they cannot keep the gun in their hand because the kick is so bad....
Shot placement out does everything....including caliber....

She's a lot more accurate with her .22 up to about 30', I'm well aware of the details behind person defense. I'd be a lot more scared of her with a .22 at 30' than of her with a .40 or .45 at 6'.
Shocking. Should have shot him in the leg and allowed him to be arrested. This is, after all, a country of laws.
