    So then, we know .223/5.56 is effective at that task, therefore using your logic, the 5.7x28 (.224) will be just as effecitve as 5.56x45! Same bullet with a smaller shell casing and less powder. Oh wait... yea, that didn't pan out so well.

    Bottom line is you are just guessing at the terminal effectiveness on humans. Until it happens, nobody really knows. If you like 300BLK, then go crazy. But don't try to push it on others as something that nobody has proof of it being. If it proves effective on the street - then great. I'm not saying it won't. I'm saying it's too early to call.
    Why too early to call? Seems to me 7.62x35 ballistics are close enough to 7.62x39 for me to have a pretty good idea as to its effectiveness since the x39 has been and continues to prove its effectiveness specifically on real humans around the globe for the past 60+ yrs.
