      True but 5.56 rounds are… Interesting. Their high velocity/low mass makes them ricochet inside the body sometimes. There’s stories of being hit in the shoulder and the round coming out of the toe. I don’t know how true it is and I don’t intend to find out through personal experience. But that round was explicitly designed to wound over killing.
