Barrett M468 - BFM468 In real terms, this means that the 6.8mm SPC has the same relative trajectory as the 5.56mm (which allows for the M468 to be fired and treated essentially like a 5.56mm M-16), but with 50% more stopping power and a six hundred meter effective range. The Barrett M468, 6.8mm (Remington.270) SPC (Special Purpose Cartridge) far surpasses that of the 5.56mm NATO (Remington.223) used by the standard military issue battle rifle while overcoming maintenance, reliability and overheating problems of the M-16/M-4. The 6.8mm is ballistically similar to the lighter 5.56mm round (in terms of accuracy and bullet drop), and it delivers half again as much kinetic energy. www.triggerfin.com /index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=199   (515 words)

Re: 6.8 mm for the M16 The 6.8x43 Remington SPC being tried (apparently by SOCOM) has 55% more energy than the standard 5.56mm 62 grain M855 at the muzzle, and 84% more by the time they reach 550 metres. It is short enough to fit the existing 5.56mm actions and magazines (the case is fatter so you can only get 25 rounds in a 30-round 5.56mm mag). These have approximately the same ballistic coefficient as the standard 7.62 ball round and are launched at a similar velocity, but of course they have less target effect. www.usenet.com /newsgroups/sci.military.moderated/msg01014.html   (414 words)

Starsiege:2845 Forums > WEAPONS OF THE WORLD: XM25 Tests The OICW was originally developed to produce a superior replacement for the 40mm grenade launcher, while also providing 5.56mm rifle capability. So, in August, 2003, it was decided to take the 5.56mm portion of the OICW and develop it as a separate weapon (the XM-8) and develop the grenade launcher part that fired the "smart shell" as the XM-25. The XM-25 computerized grenade launcher was originally one of two weapons (the other being a 5.56mm rifle) incorporated into the 18 pound XM-29 OICW. www.starsiege2845.com /forums/lofiversion/index.php/t5550.html   (1470 words)

These are a little wider and a little shorter than most 6 x 12 backs, which tend to produce 56mm x 112mm images.

NDM Article - Focus on Basics, Urges Small Arms Designer He is credited with adapting the design of Eugene Stoner’s 7.62mm AR10 assault rifle to a smaller 5.56mm version, which ultimately became the now ubiquitous M16. The outcome was the 5.56mm Ultimax light machine gun, noted by experts as one of the most manageable light machine guns in the world.

The Gun Zone -- A 5.56 X 45mm "Timeline" 1957-1966 The current standard 7.62mm weapons (the M14, M14E2, and M60) are found to be significantly more reliable than their 5.56mm counterpart SAWS candidates (the CAR-15 family, Stoner 63 system, HK 33, and AR-18). Colt unveils their "CAR-15 5.56mm Military Weapons System" to Army brass, including General Wheeler. In their final report, the Powell Board recommends that the.222 Special is not a suitable replacement for the 7.62mm NATO, development of an AR-15 type rifle in a.258 cartridge should be pursued, and 750 AR-15 rifles be purchased for extended trials. www.thegunzone.com /556dw-1.html   (676 words)
