Neat little gun/idea. I wonder if the .223 and 7.62 can still easily penetrate common Kevlar vests?
The .223 loses about 1000ft per sec over a much longer rifle barrel. I can't imagine trying to control the 7.62 chambering. I'd think a 454 Casull would be less punishing to the shooter.
It probably can, but it is only a single shot and probably shoots 55-62 grain bullets. A CZ 52 chambered in 7.62x25 can push a 85-90 grain pill along about 14-1500 fps and you get 8 shots before reloading. If you want to get really wild and crazy with a CZ 52 you can load your own ammo and use .223 sabots and get 1800-2200fps with 55grain bullets. IIRC it has nearly a 5" barrel.
Here is a little test on ballistic armor, the only .223 he used was from an AR type. The Box O' Truth #16 - Level IIIA Armor - The Box O' Truth
