Give it only to the Spec Ops, as has been mentioned before, and you have a signature round. All bad.
Heck Gene, there are a bunch of ballisticlly superior rounds out there, but they are not compatible with other systems and that severely limits ammo distribution or becomes a signature round. Or there are other sever draw backs such as barrel life. My 2 cents.  |
RB:
Not pushing either cartridge and not trying to start debates over them. The individual mentioned an intermediate cartridge and of them all, it seems those two have gotten the most attention.
I personally have no stake in this game as it ain't my life that will depend on it but I do commend guys who finally realize that the fastest way to lower recoil and a smaller overall weapon is probably a smaller cartridge.
So lets see who pops up for TR to blast! He, he, he.
