Is the 6.5mm bullet superior to the 5.56?

Recommended Posts

Ie, if 2 groups fought each other with the same skill but one group had the mx rifles and one group had m16's (massis, rh, ect)..would there be that big of a difference?

The 6.5 has more mass...and deliver a bigger damage coefficient

TL;DR: vanilla 6.5 mm beats vanilla 5.56 mm hands down (I say "vanilla" since there are Arma 3 mods that increase 5.56 mm's effectiveness).

Yeah, I can pretty much tell by the number being higher.

Tho, 5mm has less recoil, tighter grouping on 2 round bursts.

Consider 2 5mm hits on target gives more damage than a 6mm hit and a miss.

Not such a big deal in prone stance, it's crouch/standing where grouping matters.

I test grouping by firing at a wall where i can see the hits ..., and the misses.
