Which has better close range (for use in a semi-auto pistol) capibilities? Any body have any specs?
I was thinking about it the other day: most of you on this board swear by the .45 and down-talk the 5.56 but which would be better in a real life situation? I would hink that it would be indeed the 5.56; it is simply a bigger slug and more powder but would it be practicle? I can't think of any full-size/semi-compact semi-auto that fires 5.56, the closest to that would include the .50AE, .454 Casull and the .500 S&W, but no 5.56.
