Textron Systems NGSW Rifle and LMG

Of course it can. All I said is that is that it's a beautiful bullet. You clearly agree. A5B does not.

No. You are misrepresenting A5's point. He did not have in front of him the photo that you showed. That bullet is not being showed in any picture of the 6.8 NGSW cartridges being shown these days, so it's unfair to pretend A5 was talking about that bullet.

A5 meant that there's nothing magical about the 6.8 caliber and, further, that the 6.8mm bullets that ARE being shown have worse BCs than a similar 6.5mm — so why not go 6.5mm?

Don't misrepresent in order to quibble.

Let's argue something more substantive: Do you agree with me that the requirement for penetration of modern body armor should be reduced to 300–500 meters, instead of 800?
