re-inventing the wheel you could say..... looks like a souped up M60 ...PIG... I did notice there was no comparison between them two...as for closing comment re short range round...funny how the 5.56 didnt have enough legs for out long but it convineintly got over looked for up close ,feed it with the origonal rounds it was designed around..a 55 grn and give it a slower twist rate so the plurry things can get unstable and the short range thing is no longer an issue....
looks like another case of someone creating themselves a job by trying to fix a problem that wasnt there in first place (like when the powers that be decided the 5.56 was better for troops than the 7.62....... bet your bottom $$$ the guys on front line would have preferred a FN or M4 than the colt M16s they were issues...and then they got ammo that was redesigned by office number crunchers and it made situation worse
oh shit Im ranting...
must go make cuppa tea...
