This is silly. Bullets create two holes in almost all close range encounters. The top is intended to be the exit wound and the bottom is the entry. The exit wound is much smaller than portrayed unless the bullet tumbles and fragments, but the bottom image isn't telling the whole truth either.
I think the top image is disingenuous. I’ve seen .22 holes exit the same size as top image due to what you correctly described, so are they going to want to ban .22’s next?
Because truth is the weapon to use against people who are lying. If you also lie to fight their lies, you are going to lose the argument. Argue with the truth on your side and their lies are exposed...
if you can get people to listen to the truth in the first place.
You could argue the whole point of the AR-15 is to create only one hole, or at least reduce the chance of overpenetration. If you want to shoot not only a home invader but your neighbor and his dog too, use a hunting rife.
That's not really true, though. The reason 5.56 exists is primarily because its relatively low recoil allows for superb accuracy when fired in burst or full auto by infantry.
The reason AR-15's use 5.56 is because they were designed per the specifications of the military when searching for a new standard issue rifle to replace the M14, which used 7.62 and kicked like a fucking mule when fired in full auto, making shooting it in full auto pointless because you couldn't hit shit after the first round.
The fact that it has low penetration is merely a side benefit and is also pretty much irrelevant in indoor or urban setting since if you're shooting it at a human under 100 yards, it's almost certainly exiting, especially if you're using jacketed rounds. The low penetration really only applies to battlefield distances.
These idiots are protesting it because it gets used in school shootings. If you pop somebody from 20 yards, it's coming back out.
Very true also. It's always better to have more rounds downrange even if they're smaller. When someone gets hit, unless their adrenaline is flowing like crazy, they're not ignoring a gun shot of any size. You can pop someone with a .22LR and they're going to freak out the same as if you hit them with a .45-70 because all that their brain processes is "I'VE BEEN SHOT!!!". No point to using elephant rounds on humans.

Yes. Yes they are.
Tf? Only time exit wound is larger is when you're shooting hollowpoints.
That’s what is was. 22 hollowpoint, subsonic. For varmints.
Why are you arguing details?
The issue is how leftists lie.

Unfortunately reactive arguing does nothing.
This needs to be managed aggressively by conservatives or they will be marching to gas chambers.
Who said only be reactive? I\m saying that when you go on the offensive to actually say things that are true.

The increased portability of .556 was also a strong incentive for switching from 7.62 (which weighs twice as much per round).
Do they make 10 round magazines for .950 JDJ?
