THE M14 IS A SEMI/ FULL AUTO RIFLE IN 7.62x51 CALIBER and it took people down in one shot.
The M14 cartridge (bullet) delivered approximately twice the power of the M16. The M14 rifle was also more rugged, because it was made from steel, versus the M16, which used aluminum. The M14, though, was much heavier than the M16, at 11 pounds versus 8 pounds for the M16. The M14 also required less maintenance due to its gas piston design versus the M16 direct gas impingment system. The M16 gas system was simpler, but produced more fouling of the rifle inner workings. Both the M16 and M14 were deadly weapons. Each weapon has it advantages and disadvantages.
