1.Why is it that a .223 has so much more respect than a .22lr?! Are the bullets not relatively the same size?
Velocity and bullet weight so out surpasses the LR that there not in the same league.
2. What does .30 caliber mean? Does this include .308? 30-06? 30-30?
The 30 caliber rounds you just mentioned are all .308 inches in diameter.
3. What is a good versatile hunting round?
Depending on what you’re shooting the 3 you listed are some of the best for midsized game.
4. What is a good tactical round?
308 and 30-06 are good and add the 5.56
