Honest folks if the .22lr is just so good a sniper round then why not use it as the standard sniper round instead of the .308. Replace the .223 with .22lr. in the M16. This will save taxpayers a lot of money.

Arrrrgh! What part about just another tool didn't we get? Different rifles for different tasks. If you are making like a bush 50-200 yds away from a enemy with others possibly nearby do you:
A) Light him up with your Barrett M-82A1
B) .300 Win Mag superdupertactical sniper rifle
C) a supressed subsonic .22 and let them figure where the shot came from.
I hate to sound like an acolyte of our former resident Harlan, but .22s do have their "tactical" :barf: uses.
