I wouldnt say its deadlier than a 7.62, but I would go as far as to say its better than most magnum rounds.
******** .22? Really? Thats the biggest slug you could give us?
Actually a 7.62mm x 39mm round is typically 8 grams while a 9mm round is typically 7.5, so the Ak round is technically bigger.
And a heavier round tends to have better energy transfer, power, and momentum, which is what results in immediate take down power and incapacitation.
A smaller object traveling quickly, like a micro meteorite has a tendency to poke holes in things rather than tear holes or transfer energy.
So you're just wrong on that part.
That didn't really...
Refute anything I said at all. O_o
Also large temporary cavity, small permanent one.
In terms of actual damage it would be small.
Plus if you noticed it over penetrated.
In any case, the consistency of the round is way off, it depends on your range (for instance it generally has better performance at 200 yards than straight out the muzzle) and this is just a youtube video, they could be using 2% gelatin instead of 20% or 10% or whatever for all I know.
First off, the entrance cavity if you actually paid attention to the video expanded a great deal. More so than what I would expect from a pistol or even a magnum round. The 5.56 has been used by just about every NATO force in just about every assault rifle old and new. Its lethality has been proved by every conflict we have been in since Vietnam. It is also more powerful than the Beretta, M1911 or any service pistol that has been used. I went into this argument already knowing the answer.
