Unless orchestrated correctly with well balanced loads the protocol of examining a caliber against another is a fools errand. Randomly picking a loading simply because it is an FMJ without any thought as to load development and bullet construction will at best misrepresent the capability of that caliber. The Wolf 110 will not be optimized for a military type range of targets but rather will be considered in the light of economical development and production. Equally the 120 Norma is in basis a hunting projectile for pelt and bird in Europe not a military construction.
Just as it was not possible to quickly and cheaply rig high capacity magazines with string and gum, it was expounded that the Grendel could never offer such capability, so we have argued that the same gum and gaffer tape approach must preclude its ability to operate from a belt. The case was made that it could not be pounded into an existing link on an existing feed tray. This morphs in the internet from a simple consideration into what looks like and exhaustive engineering study and when cursory reviewed by interested parties such information works heavily against us.
In this same approach what would be the interest in running commercial bullets in handloads against well established military calibers. We are at present undertaking to build T3 technology into the Grendel, a 6.5mm M855A1 if you will. Balance this loading into a SAFE cartridge which will offer weapon durability and you now have the basis of a simple study. Our apples to apples of military constructions is met and we have but to throw these from similar barrel lengths to start the examination.
