More scaremongering about centerfire .22's...

4. I would assume you can use both, depending on your target

It works well for suppressing fire if you have to, but its very easy to switch to single shot for a target far away.

If the military had somebody shooting at them from 300 yard, they are not going to give up and run away. They will do the best they can. They can still shoot one shot a second at 300 yards, and be accurate enough.

Or to put it another way. Older rifles, like the M14 were good up to 600 meters, but were heavy and could not carry as much ammo.

M16's were lighter, and still effective up to 300 meters.
