New Cartridge Developments and Implications for Dismounted Infantry Soldiers

[cory]

...We already have been taking SAWs into the house since the SAW was adopted,...

Please don't remind me of this s***. HAHA

I'd rather clear a room with 2 known tangos with an M4, than clear a room that might have and might not have a tango, with the SAW. Going into a room I'd fully expect to be using the SAW as a club. They were bad enough about not firing when you pulled the trigger especially then moving as violently as you do moving through a house, forget about it.

Not to mention that, at least when I was in, it was a rule that the SAW gunner was never the 1 man (didn't enter the room first), because of its lack of reliability.

Sorry about the slight tangent, back to a caseless 130gr .510+ BC combat load.
