New Army "Caliber Configuration Study"

[Tony Williams]

Update on the Polymer ammunition. It's garbage, and HANKA's suspicions were spot-on.

Correction: PCP ammunition may be garbage, but the .50 cal MK323 Mod 0 from MAC LLC has been successfully undergoing independent tests in different machine guns and is in the process of getting qualified for use by the USMC. It is a more conservative design than the PCP, with a relatively large brass base, but still saves 23% of the overall cartridge weight.
