As has been said, Yes you are and you also know very little about guns.
An M-14 is considered an assault rifle, It is a select/auto fire weapon of 308 cal and a velocity of around 2800 FPS and is used often for shooting varmits [rabbits] at ranges up to 1000 yards and is used in most long range match shoots.
Napoleon had a standing order that any man found with a pellet gun was to be put to death. You see there was and is today built air powered projectile rifles that have a velocity of over 3000 FPS with sizes of up to .040 cal.
From cover on a rampage a .22 single shot in a number of center fire chamberings would be a very fine killing weapon, There are very few rifles with accuracy and light recoil that would out do a .22 cal single shot.
But you keep making yourself look silly when talking with so little actual knowledge on the subject.
