Having a 5.56 and various .30cal & 7.62 for high power
competition.
I prefer the power of the .30 cal, using POA/POI I know that an incapacitating hit occurred.
5.56 simply doesn't do it. If it all I have then it's going to be used.
Look at the different ammo now used, the 55gr original load (supposed to tear an arm off with a shoulder hit), the 69gr penetrator, the 75gr long range.
Look what happen in the "Blackhawk down situation, wrong ammo wasn't delivering the incapcitation, 7.62 shows up no problem.
I'll even take a 30/30 or a M1 Carbine.
