300 AAC for two-legged critters?

[Sensei]

So how does the Barnes 110gr stack up against decent 5.56mm ammo lethality-wise (Mk262, Mk318, SSA 70gr "Brown Tip", Hornady Tap T-2, et al)? Let's say inside 100yds. I'll even grant the 5.56 being fired from a 14.5" or 16" barrel but the 300AAC from something short like 10.5"? Can the 300 110gr Barnes compete? I am deliberately not using the term "stopping power" as there are so many variables involved. The 110gr Barnes drops hogs at 100 (+ or-) so I doubt it would be *substandard* for personal defense.

If we are talking purely terminal ballistics inside 100 yards, I'll take the tac-tx over the 5.56 competition seven days a week and twice on Sunday. I base this on how this round performs in gel, on white tail deer, and against hogs.

I can't find any 5.56 rounds that do that well across all common intermediate barriers.
