Why do you think that the Soviets all but copied the 5.56x45?

When a 556 hits a person at or above hydrostatic shock velocity it is devastating.

yah, I think the 556 does more internal damage because it bounces around inside the target causing more tissue damage. However, that being said, I still prefer the larger 762.
