The idea of shooting any round at someone and expecting them to survive is absurd, but .223/5.56 is definitely in the range of “reliably fatal if applied to the chest or head” .
It might not be a “big boy round” but it’s still a rifle round – if wasn’t powerful enough to reliably “incapacitate” (i.e. “kill”) a human being at 100 yards the world’s militaries wouldn’t use it.
.22LR can readily kill someone, with good shot placement. Basically anything interfering with the heart, brain, or causing substantial leaks of the circulatory system is gonna kill someone.
Real men can shrug off any calibre not designed to punch through car engine blocks.
Shit, I hear that if you use enough power tools and watch enough sportsball even those liquid copper jet tank boomy things have a hard time getting through the protective crust of sawdust and testosterone.
My point was that if you had to have someone shooting at you would you rather they shot 22lr or 223? Shooting any live round at a target you don’t actually want to injure or kill is stupid, but if you had to you’d want to use the smallest possible bullet to minimize the damage.
My dude thinks 223 is big boy bullets

You’re the dude pretending 9mm would be a reasonable false flag ammo lol
… you might want to re-read my comment because I’m definitely not saying that.

Lol power tools… Literally devices made to make hard work easy, so funny that they became this manly symbol.
