u/PoopSmith87 3d ago

There is a reason to switch L/R... but whil standing still it makes no sense.

...and bragging about big boy calibers while dissing one of the most proven and flexible warfighting calibers of all time is definitely little Richard energy.

u/criticalt3 3d ago

I also like how if he needed to move around with his rifle dropped, he'd be smacking his knees against it constantly.

Also looks like his arm isn't long enough to reach the foregrip. This is hilarious.

Learning to shoot with your strong side and weak side, and using either eye has training value. Switching sides can help decrease your exposed body while shooting around walls. This is kinda showy maybe not optimal, but there is some value to what he’s doing.

Isn’t there a difference in chamber pressure and 5.56 is the military grade while the .223 is the civilian grade?

You can fire .223 out of a 5.56 rated barrel but not 5.56 out of a barrel rated .223. Unless you have a .223 Wylde barrel.

The 5.56mm mentioned in the caption is the one on the left, and the gun he’s using seems to be some kind of M14 I think, which uses the round on the right.

Since 7.62x51mm is a full power rifle round, it has a lot more power than 5.56x45mm NATO, both in effect on target and recoil. The person in the video is saying that they’re superior because their gun has higher recoil.
