To: Long Cut
Muttly like...in theory, but sure looks like barrel is too short to take the .223 out of the groundhog-hunting category and into the war-winning one. That little bullet needs velocity to do its best, but unless we improve the interior ballistics...this barrel length is an advance to the rear.
I'd like our troops to be armed with the most ferocious weapons our money and technology can buy. A short-barreled .22 just cannot be it...so far. Let the Adventure continue...and may our warriors get the best equipment on Earth.

A short-barreled .22 just cannot be it...Huh?! They don't call the 5.45 Russian the "poison bullet" for nothing. Even the Muj are affraid of that round.
We got zero from the arabs. Why can't we get bullets from the Russians?
