A 5.45mm was ineffective at penetrating much more than a wooden door, since it loses it's stability very easily.
taht is true, 7,62 outpanatrates 5.45, but in the open spaces, it's good enough.
many soldgies didn't like 5,45,neither does m.t. kalashnikov himself.
btw, if it wasn't for m16 .223 round, there might not be 5,45 at all.
