Not so wimpy. The 223 has more knock down than the .303. The bullet moves at 3,300
ft/sec and
spins at anywhere between 18,000 to 24,000 rpm (depending on rifling twist). When it
hits
something soft it tends to keyhole (turns end for end) at the same time it is still
spinning at
24,000 rpm. It's like getting hit with a ball of whirling razor blades. Its only draw
back is
that it is a lousy round in brush, that's where the heavier slower .303 has an
advantage. There
aren't a lot of bushes in Afghanistan.
