Years ago (1960s) I read how some troops in Korea were given these new flechette rounds to test. When some NK troops infiltrated the DMZ, these rounds were used and found to kill the invaders dead, double dead and dead,dead,dead! All from one round each.
Knowing our wimpy proclivity for making nice clean kills, these rounds were probably banned, or put on the back burner to allow the .223 1/14 rifling to progress.

"Fascinating. I wonder what the one in the middle is for." A really long game of Jarts.

It’s for penetrating body armor. (I don’t have any inside information, but the intent is obvious....)
