Do you have a serious point? When gun control advocates describe 5.56 as "high-powered," it is in the context of rifle rounds, not naval guns.milosz wrote:Why not?johno wrote:So, compared to many/most other rifle rounds, the 5.56 is not "high-powered."
Again, if your argument is that everything with less "power" is not "high-powered" then we have to reach a terminal item which is, in fact, high-powered. Unfortunately, there is a projectile throwing machine that will always outpace everything until we hit, I dunno, a naval 16-inch gun. If nothing is high powered, then everything is.
And they are being correct but dishonest if they mean "high-powered" compared to a BB gun. No one thinks naval guns or BB guns are part of the discussion.
Compared to the power of other rifle and hunting rounds, 5.56 is NOT "high-powered." (You admit as much in your earlier post discussing the lack of "one shot kill" power of 5.56.)
Whew. Done. Out.
