	Halflife2.net - The 25mm sniper rifle
		Barrett, the evangelists of the modern.50 caliber sniper rifle, have built a 25mm sniper rifle (although shoulder cannon may be a more precise term), the XM109.
		In comparison, the Barrett M107.50 caliber sniper rifle in general use today has a 29 inch barrel, overall length of 57 inches, and weighs in at a mere 32 pounds, with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds.
		The 25mm round is derivative design from the AH-64 Apache helicopter’s M789 high-explosive dual purpose (good against armor and personnel) 30mm ammunition and will penetrate at least 50 millimeters of armor plating, making it capable of destroying light armored vehicles, SCUD launchers, and other equipment.

		The 25mm caliber is a standard size of heavy machine gun (specifically autocannon) ammunition for NATO forces.
		The US military uses 25mm weapons in their AV-8B Harrier, AC-130 gunship, M2 Bradley, LAV-25, and as a standard ship-based munition in the Mk 38 autocannon.
		Several sub-types of 25mm ammunition are available — the most common being Armor Piercing, High explosive, sabot, tracer, and practice rounds.

		So instead of going ahead with the plan to build a new.50 caliber machine-gun (the XM312), the manufacturer of the XM307 (General Dynamics) was given the go ahead on manufacturing their weapon with the stipulation that it be convertible to a plain old, non-computer,.50 caliber weapon by quickly swapping out a few parts.
		Aside from the.50 caliber ammo being 20 times cheaper than the high tech 25mm stuff, if there are teething problems with the computer controlled weapon, the troops will still have a spiffy new version of the old M-2.
		The 25mm XM307 was developed from the 1990s project to produce a 20mm computer controlled shell for an infantry weapon, as well as a heavier crew served weapon (the XM307).

	GAO-05-687, Defense Ammunition: DOD Meeting Small and Medium Caliber Ammunition Needs, but Additional Actions Are ...
		Total Small and Medium Caliber Requirements, Fiscal Years 2000 to 2005 (in millions of rounds): [See PDF for image] [End of figure] DOD has initiated several steps to meet the increased demand, including funding about $93.3 million for modernization improvements at the three government-owned ammunition plants producing small and medium caliber ammunition.
		DOD is currently able to meet its medium caliber requirement through modernization efforts at the government-owned ammunition plants and through contracts with commercial producers.
		Currently, one of these producers is manufacturing medium caliber ammunition at Radford which specializes in the production of propellants and explosives; the other two commercial producers manufacture medium caliber ammunition at their own facilities.

		The 25mm XM307 Advacned Crew Served Weapon (ACSW) System is a next generation infantry weapon incorporating the latest advances in fire control, materials technology and munitions to provide the 21st century warfighter with accurate, long-range, destructive firepower in a compact, self-contained lightweight package.
		The ACSW is light enough to be carried and employed by a two-man crew; and yet, delivers decisively violent, long-range, high-explosive fire which offers considerable advantages to the warfighter over the current Caliber.50 M2HB heavy machine gun or the 40mm MK-19.
		The Family of 25mm munitions provides decisively violent and suppressive target effects and a leap ahead in crew served weapons performance.

		The 25mm HEAB (High Explosive Air Burst) programmable ammunition will have at least three times longer effective range against point target, when compared with current 40mm systems such as M203 single-shot or Milkor Mk.1 multi-shot grenade launchers.
		The 25mm ammunition, used in XM25, will share the HEAB warheads with the 25mm crew-served XM307 OCSW weapon, but the cartridge will be shorter, to provide slower velocity and less recoil.
		XM25 also will be provided with other than HEAB ammunition options, such as FAE/thermobaric and HEAT (armor piercing, with penetration up to 50mm/2inch of RHA) point-detonating warheads for anti-personnel and anti-vehicle use, as well as canister flechette rounds (loaded with multiple steel darts for close combat).

	TAB E -- Development of DU Munitions
		In the 1960s, tungsten alloys used in the XM578 projectile had to be encased in a steel jacket to withstand the extreme firing velocities of the 152mm gun, reducing the penetrating effectiveness of the tungsten cartridge.
		Current Uses of DU DU is currently used in kinetic cartridges for the Army's 25mm BUSHMASTER cannon (M2/3 Bradley Fighting Vehicle), the 105mm cannon (M1 and M60 series tanks) and the 120mm cannon (M1A1 and M1A2 Abrams Tank).
		Some veterans claim to have fired 50-caliber DU sniper rounds during the Gulf War, but this claim could not be supported after numerous interviews with the manufacturer of the 50 caliber sniper rifle, with ammunition suppliers, and with the DoD logisticians responsible for small caliber ammunition.

	SoldierTech: The Barrett XM-109 Sniper Rifle
		Thanks to the increased power, the XM-109 rifle is designated as a "payload" rifle, designed to destroy light armor, and light enough to be carried by a single sniper.
		Essentially, the 25mm upper receiver attaches directly to the lower receiver of the M-107 (in effect, swapping out the.50 caliber components for 25mm ones).
		A scaled down derivative of the low velocity 30mm HEDP M789 ammunition fired by the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter, the MX-109's 25mm ammunition has been judged to be 2.5 times more effective at destroying targets than a.50 caliber armor-piercing round.

		At Nanon Williams' trial, the prosecutor suggested that the sequence of events was as follows: that Williams shot Emmade Rasul in the face, shot Adonius Collier in the head, shot again at Rasul as he was running away, and then shot Collier in the head from close range with the shotgun.

		By the time FMC realized and made the cut-down M113 for recon the Army was already committed to the M114 which failed miserably in Vietnam from a design flaw of having hull overhang in front of its tracks that would impale itself on the upper bank of a rice paddy trying to be crossed.

		Despite the higher cost, the XM307 is slated to eventually replace the MK19, said weapons experts, who argue the 25mm round outperforms the less-effective 40mm round.
