Any firearm, .22, .40. 9mm, .45 can kill a person, more or less instantly, if the bullet damages a vital organ.

Life and death is not like flipping a light switch, so dying instantly doesn't happen too often. Certainly a shot to the head in which the bullet damages both hemispheres will incapacitate immediately, and is eventually fatal.
