> I'm pretty sure I'd rather be shot by a hunting rifle than an assault rifle. Hunting rifles aren't designed to blow a deer's leg off. I don't think you know what you're talking about.

IIRC, typical military cartridges have been getting less and less powerful since WWII, because they make automatic fire possible and allow soldiers to carry more ammo.
