In a lot of states it is illegal to hunt deer with the 5.56 because it lacks the knock down power to cleanly kill.

When the military was transitioning from the 7.62 to the 5.56 extensive studies concluded, in rounds per killed the 7.62 was far superior.

The 5.56 was chosen in part because of its ability to wound not kill. Requiring manpower to remove the wounded from the field, care for the wounded, the economic cost to provide for the wounded and the moral lost of the society while looking at the wounded.
