1. Why do many foreign military sniper rifles use 7.62 bullets instead of the lighter, more accurate 5.56 round?

2. What is the difference between rounds such as 7.62×51, 7.62×54, 303… ect. I just want to know what the differences are, no matter how small. Also differences b/w the 5.56 rounds/.223 ect

3. .223 is the same thing as 5.56, right? just like .303 is same as 7.62?

4. Is the recoil of a .45 the same as .357mag? which is bigger if not equal?

With all these new laws and Obama in office will owning guns like Daewoo Maxi 223 Rifle, Cobray M11, M16′s, military sniper rifles and machine gun turrents still be possible? Or even be able to get a permit?

I’m interested in military tactics and am curious as to what range military sniper rifles (like the M24 or the M40A1) are zeroed at. 100 yards? 200 yards? Thanks!
