22
Two tens plus
Twenty-two, the number after 21.
A .22 is a small-caliber firearm or its ammunition, popular for target shooting and small game: He learned to shoot with a .22 rifle.
In craps, rolling two twos is called hard four.
Catch-22 refers to a paradoxical situation with no escape—from Joseph Heller's 1961 novel.
