M4 And M240 Replacements

I had not researched this any before this morning. Interesting cartridge design - 3 piece case to reduce weight and handles 80,000 psi operation propelling 140 grains @ 3,000 ft/s out of a 16" barrel!

For anyone interested, there’s pretty good initial ballistics comparisons on this link:
