    yes and no...... wounded guys can still shoot back. if youve ever seen what a tumbling .223 round does when it hits flesh (as the origonal design called for them to do) it sort of blows that whole theory out of the water...... the yellow packet norinco .223 make a hell of a mess of wallaby sized game...can see the resistance level being much more. Ive skinned out wallabies with holes big enough to stick your whole arm in using them.... and if you watch the way some people shoot it would be just as dangerous to not be what they were aiming at.... accurate is only as good as the plonker pointing the thing LOL.
