I'm in a heavy weapons company now, so we don't have SDMs. Most of our fight is with stuff that makes much bigger holes  . I vaguely remember a conversation with an SDM from another unit who had 262 and liked it. He wasn't using an M4, though. I would think an M16 platform that's been improved to higher grade accuracy should be a tack driver with a match grade round. Given a choice, I'd want the AP round. More accurate, more lethal. |
My "differrence" in magazine capacities reffers more to the fact that loading AR platform mags to full capcity Is a good way of finding out what condition they are in, than the fact that the 6.8 spc is a little more plump. But good call.
