New Army "Caliber Configuration Study"

[stanc]

This is not the first time you've thrown this phrase into the discussion with the apparent intent of discrediting a posters' comment.

You're mistaken, as usual. I was noting what should be apparent to anybody: Tony is addressing events in Afghanistan, but the needs of the next war may not be the same.

What do you suggest as an alternative for the needed hit probability at range?

It's impossible to answer that without knowing what hit probability (pH) is actually required of a cartridge for CLAWS. If we go with Tony's idea that 7.62mm pH @ 1000 meters needs to be matched, that's fairly easy to achieve, since 7.62 Ball has close to 0.0 pH at 1000 meters.

Be sure to document your answer so the rest of us will know whether you are simply playing games or you are seriously trying to help with understanding.
