Then you'll also know that part of the design of the NATO 5.56mm was to wound and not specifically kill.

Ehh IIRC, we made a trade off. Stopping power for accuracy. It was not designed to "wound". Actually, I'm not really sure how you'd go about "designing a round to wound".

Perhaps that what rubber pellets are.

Mostly it was to be cheap, though.
