Question for anyone with a knowledge of firearms?
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?
