Original Note:
The claim made is a myth. There is no unique 'assault weapon bullet,' and they fire smaller calibre rounds than most believe. A common round in so-called 'assault weapons,' the .223/5.56, is considered under-powered for hunting big game in many jurisdictions. https://scholarship.law.campbell.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1265&context=fac_sw https://calibremag.ca/big-game-small-cartridges/
