There are many styles of projectiles that will cause horrific wounds. Hollow Points Hydra Shocks Dumb Dumb Soft Point Double 00 to name a few. All designed to inflict inhumane wounds and should all be control or outlawed IMHO.

There is no reason for any weapon used by the public to have a max capacity of more the six rounds.
There is plenty of info to be found for those on here that need some education to have an intelligent discussion. The .223 /.556 is not as fast as many with an avg of 2800fps, it is actually very slow compared to something like my 22/250.

Agree on the bullet types and 30 rds. That said most "shooters" on the street are probably going to buy the cheapest ammo they can get which is typically going to be some type of ball. At least the guns we were taking from people when I was playing Barney Fife were usually loaded with cheap FMJ practice ammo.

Like you, if (big if) the time comes I will turn in what I need to turn in.
