ITT: Boomer fuddlore

.45 made to be able to shoot 5.56 but not the other way around
>smaller diameter than 556
>shorter case than 556
I could understand someone claiming the opposite but that's just retarded.

>funny enough I found a .223 round in my last spam can of 7n6 that I bought in 2012

I would trust something from them ahead of something from Jow Forums
Also you tards should have figured out by now that these are shareblue threads trying to divide gun owners

There may be some truth somewhere in there.
Ruger XGI. Scaled up mini-14. Advertised in .308 and .243 in the mid 80s. Never went into production.

Well think about it from the point of a literal retard boomer.
5.56x45
5.45x39
They both share 45 in there somewhere so that means its gucci to do at least once. But I've never been able to shake the myth that the Russians developed the AK74 to be able to just take a handful of 5.56NATO and shoot it, albeit shittily. It's the most baffling fuddlore I've ever heard.

Shame, fudds would cream in their carhartts for one of these in .243

Fudds must die. Always hang a traitor before a enemy.

>5.56 meant to wound not kill
Though not true, the concept is interesting. More resources are required to handle wounded soldiers than dead soldiers.

Yes let's just hold hands and believe nonesense. I've heard an actual boomer claim Gaston Glock accidentally forgot to design a safety. The same boomer claimed shooting at silhouettes or owning any gun designed for LE or military as a civilian will result in a murder conviction if you're in a justifiable self-defense shooting, because obviously you wanted to kill someone.

>fudds
>semi auto
Uh huh.

How did the "designed to wound" meme get started, anyway?

It was simply a .22 caliber projectile and everyones mind immediately went to .22lr. They were also salty that muh turdy cal got the boot. The first iterations of the M16 with the 1:14 twist were known to rip limbs off because the slow twist rate caused the bullet to tumble after 50yds.

Something something wounded personal is a heavier burden for the enemy force than a dead one

I don’t get it.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. It's my understanding that 5.56 was chosen because we can carry a lot of it. With tens of thousands of rounds being expended per enemy casualty, and the individual rifleman being more useful for suppressing fire (while a SAW, M2, or grenade does the real killing), it just makes sense for most soldiers to carry a shitload of 5.56 compared to a few mags of 7.62.

as long as we kill all tripfags first

Yes. And also because the range of the average engagment happens at is close enough where a large round has no advantage

tell that to the taliban in the hills of 'stan

What is tinnitus?

Which is why 7.62 hasn't completely disappeared. You'll note I said "average"

Depends on the grain of the ammo.

I mean, even discounting that, a more powerful round is gonna be better at penetrating cover.
And there are many mountainous and open sorts of places in the world.

Hey shareblue
>Yes let's just hold hands and believe nonesense.
Or just not be a aggro tard.
>I've heard an actual boomer
That's a pretty low bar for hatred. Care to be judged for retarded posts others make?

>we're moving away from the concept of "one shot one kill" full power rifle cartridges
>WOW THESE BULLETS AREN'T EVEN SUPPOSED TO KILL ANYONE?

>want a quiet handgun? suppress a .45 ACP, it's naturally subsonic!

.243 would be a great round for a "battle rifle" t b h

Arty and airstrikes do the “real killing”

I had someone in my hunter safety class ask the DNR officer (instructor) that he had heard someone say it was ok to shoot .308 in a .30-06 rifle but not the other way around and wanted to confirm it before he tried it
>You should only use ammunition that is of the same type as is marked on the barrel
He then protests that he knows "for a fact" that 5.56 can be shot out of a .223
>That's not true. I would encourage you to do more research. But you should only use ammunition the gun was designed to use.

9mm is just as good as larger and more powerful calibers
t. 30 yo boomer

these retards actually think that

.30 cal was designated as the minimum you should be trying to kill people with by almost every military up until the US completely changed it by issuing the M16. the rest is just retarded boomer speculation

what's wrong about that?

Hey fuck you, carhartts are a Wisconsin thing, that’s our word

>implying it's not
Big oof, my statistically illiterate boomer

Wrong. I just turned 18. And I know that the bigger the better

I actually thought it was FMJ people say this about, not any specific calibre

>he doesn't know

no, burns barrels too fast

Suppressors are illegal in my country. Tell me what is wrong about suppressing a subsonic round?

>t. mad boomer

Glocknade was a real thing at one time though

they probably think the guy was silly because you can buy subsonic, heavy grain 9mm for less than the price of normal 45 and it would be quieter because of the smaller hole gasses are allowed to escape from.

You don't get to own carhartts.

I mean what else would you call it? Ruger can’t just say it’s a M1A

Time to eat your crow faggots

It’s not a meme. The army switched over from 7.62 to 5.56 for a few reasons.

You can carry more, it’s lighter, and they found that typical firefights were fought at distances that 5.56 would still be accurate. Plus the army teaches fire superiority over accuracy. Look at the battle drills.

And the meme you’re referring to is true. The bullet wasn’t designed to injure, and it doesn’t tumble mid flight, but when it hits tissue it tumbles, obviously creating a larger wound channel. It’s also not uncommon for it to bounce off bones, since it’s a lighter bullet. You can see an entry wound in the pelvic region, with an exit would in the upper to mid back.

Funnily enough, 30 carbine had zero confirmed kills beyond 50m in Korea, so that part at least is based in some truth

I mean, with how arbitrary the shit the ATF makes up and how they change their minds on a dime I don’t fully not believe this

he hit the deer bud. Go watch the video of the guy who shot a .50 inbetween a deck of cards to reinforce why you are a retard.

isn’t this how the Waco thing kicked off? with M16 parts and constructive possession?

>Semi automatic guns are less accurate than bolt actions
you should tell the benchrest guys i am sure they will believe you

There's no exit wound, on the camera it shows a near miss, go get some laser eye surgery

It went through the eye sockets you absolute retard.

If he hit he would've said so, you think this guy would just embarrass himself like that?

He's the first person in the history of ever to be wrong. Shocking. Catch the followup video where they say there was a hole in the bone between the eye sockets and stop wasting our time with something that's been solved for years.

Did you look at him? He's already an embarrassment.

Nah why don't you eat yours, you noguns dipshit

youtube.com/watch?v=YrHpe5Z93wM

If he hit it there would have been a gigantic exit wound, he even explains that he didnt hit it in the comments, can u not read?

>gigantic exit wound
From what? The 0.5mm of bone it blew through without deforming? Fuck outta here retard.

I never understood this bit of fuddlore

Ah I checked out the guys youtube channel. It's literally just clickbait fuddlore. Didn't realize you were trolling at first. Carry on bro

>noguns dipshit

GUESS WHAT!!!!!

yes I edc a Glock 30 S, now tell me how 9mm is better

Abrams was the best tank in the modern era until very recently.
And there is some merit to a 50BMG round creating a high temp/pressure shockwave if you look at the physics/aerodynamics

show me your dick first and then I will

>you think this guy would just embarrass himself like that?
>shoots a doe with .50 BMG

Seething boomer.

Not from the US, so what's that with the AR-pistol about?

No wako kicked off because the ATF wanted to swing there dick because they thought they had full auto fun guns (they didnt btw)

So instead of going up and asking the people "hay we heard some roumors and want to check things out"

They got a bullshit warrent and rolled in tanks then burnt all the men woman and children alive, unless they ran out of a building then they just fucking sniped them in the head.

An civilian m14

You mean to tell me, that at no point in all of Korea during the entire conflict, not one person lined up a hundred yard shot with a weapon perfectly capable of harvesting deer, and domed somebody?
