This weapon is a 7.62 x 51. The Army wanted a heavier round than the 5.56 because in battle the 5.56 has had issue in battle. It is not the super round that the gun ignorant were told it is.

No.The 6.8x51mm Common Cartridge, also known as the .277 Fury, was developed by Sig Sauer as part of the United States Army’s Next Generation Squad Weapon Program…more on that in a minute.Nostradamus' » wrote:Isn't that Russian ammunition?Huey » 03 Feb 2024, 2:18 pm » wrote: ↑ Here is the new firearm that will cause gun grabbers, gunophobes, those who lose their shot guns in their house, and overall gun illiterate people to lose their minds.

@R. Suave you might want to read that article and get a little knowledge on why they are switching from 5.56. That is a freebie although I did your work for you.

They spend decades, and millions, developing both the round and a "delivery platform" in the belief that they provide a superior alternative to available options.
The US military recognizes the virtues and adopts the weapon. It proves effective in combat. Armies all over the world buy it. Hundreds of thousands of dead and wounded validate the concept.
In 2017, some ******* slack jawed ammosexual begins to spew a bunch of uninformed crap, et voila, the AR-15/M16 family of weapons was now exclusively developed for sport.
Why?
Because body armor counter measures didn't stop developing...decades spent neutralizing the effectiveness of the M16 to generate temporary cavities should eventually pay off in increased protection.
But to *******, slack jawed ammosexual in 2024, it's because it was never any good anyway.
So pew-pew, tactically, away at each other kids..
