You can’t reason with the anti-5.56 crowd. By their logic, 9mms shouldn’t even wound.
Do it. Find me one reputable source. Don’t hit me with those fudd/bubbabait forums, find me something from actual ballistic scientists that says that 5.56 is meant to wound. I’m telling you, it’s there to kill, it just doesn’t hit as hard as .308.
It absolutely is not. By that logic a feather is less effected by the wind than a cinder block.
If you really want, I can find the statistics to back up my shit. Furthermore, 50BMG is absolutely effected by wind, more so than 5.56…it’s just a bigger round that catches more air.
I reiterate that I’m just surprised to see somebody in favor of it Because I like it too, BUT I always see people pissing on it.
That’s all I mean about that.
I don’t see what’s so surprising about it. Sure, it might not be the best round for everything, but from what I’ve heard, it does its job. There ARE applications where other rounds are better (ex. 50. BMG for when you don’t want to give a shit about wind over long distance shots), but for simple closer-range encounters, I’m sure it does the job. I wouldn’t run it through a DMR or a proper marksman’s rifle, sure, but intermediate cartridge like it is always nice for regular combat.
Like I know all that, but I’m just saying that Derpi is hardly a place for anybody who doesn’t worship the church of hi-cal “5.56 a shit”. I’m just surprised to see an argument in favor of it here.
I mean, it makes sense, right? A significantly larger slug with a significantly larger amount of propellant is going to have more energy, and therefore, against lightly armored targets, be more effective (although against unarmored targets the danger of over-penetration might be higher, but honestly I don’t think that 7.62 NATO has much of a risk of that), at the cost of how many rounds you can carry. If you’re carrying rounds that are, say, half as powerful, but you can carry three times as many, you will be naturally more effective, and that’s not even considering things like the negligible recoil and inherently smaller muzzleflip.
I might just be talking out my ass though, so do take this with a grain of salt.
Fuck is this shit, actual logic and knowledge about bullets and shit?
That’s just fuddlore. 5.56 was, in fact, made to kill. It just doesn’t do it as effectively as .308. The reason why the US switched over to it is because we can carry so much more of it that the reduced lethality is made up for in the amount of rounds you can carry.
5.56 isn’t about outright lethality, it’s about causing casualties - which it does quite well. You don’t have to kill a man to take him out of the fight…
Well fuck son, way to fly off the handle and assume that you’re the smartest human being on the entire internet, all while ignoring half of my statement and not being man enough to flame the guy to his face. Classy.
Edited because: clarity
“Wah wah wah the 5.56 round sucks wah wah”
ugh.
The Military uses armor piercing rounds,
high velocity is like a little love tap.
I hate the idea of a bullet just being in and out of the target, then they just stand there laughing at you probably jacked up on some weird drug.
So that’s the idea of having more bullet time inside the target at a lower velocity for more yaw.
You have a hot load at a lower velocity, gives new meaning to (give ’em hell).
5.56 is a glorified varmint hunting cartridge and is only adequate for two‐legged game due to its tendency to yaw. When it doesn’t yaw its lethality is severely compromised against soft targets. Ponies are a lot stockier than humans and despite their reduced stature would probably weigh at least as much, which makes 5.56 a piss‐poor choice against them. Except for the gigantic eyes, but if this chump is wearing a helmet with that kind of visor what do you want to bet that whatever he’s up against will be wearing something equivalent?
Just because you have no idea what an acronym means doesn’t mean it’s technobabble.
Polycarbonates, so named because they’re polymers containing carbonate groups, also exist. Polycarbonate+d+ simply means coated in polycarbonate. AFAICT, coating the aluminium in polycarbonates is unnecessary but it would make the faceplate non‐conductive.
Kevlar is a synthetic fibre formed from polymers. Kevlar is used for everything from tires to body armour.
Titanium is a metal that has a high tensile strength to density ratio. There are better materials for armour but few of them are light enough to be practical for body armour. Titanium is probably being used here to beef up protection rather than cut down on weight.
Tracking: a.k.a., seeking. Yes, this is a guided(!) RPG (practically a guided missile).
Smart: intelligent to some degree. Presumably in determining the best time for the airburst to go off.
Airburst: explodes either while still in the air or, like the Russian VOG‐25P, uses a small energetic charge that detonates on impact with the ground, flinging it into the air where the main charge is then detonated.
Since maximum slug rotation speed meets terminal entry.
5.8×42 = huge chunks of flesh blown away? Since when does a near twin of 5.56×45 cause that kind of damage?
同志們辛苦了。
This is the type of gun that will take out huge chunks of flesh and leave families traumatized everywhere ^^
Can you make a separate image of that flag?
Это как Китай
i don’t think he speaks english. i mean, look down the letters: there is chinese characters
A grip designed for a human hand, but used by a pony with the statement that they made it.
Well that’s just fuckin weird.
