With bullets and motorcycles, power thrills, but speed kills. Awhile back, a guy on youtube showed a bullet wound to his thigh from a 193-5.56. The bullet tumbled, bent in half at the cannelure and came out of his knee. I don't think a .264 or .277 bullet with a decent BC, could be driven fast to match the destructive nature of the 5,56/223...
