I've seen a couple of videos "oohing and ahhhing" over .277 Fury aka 6.8x51mm and its performance.
All is in accord with how any 7d pi projectile will perform.
What I am not seeing is a side by side comparison with a 7.62x51mm NATO rifle with a similar barrel length.
7.62x51mm NATO will also do 7d from 20" barrels and 6d from 16" barrels.
It's a bit of a difference but...
With the 4x damage to the skull, 7d will average 90; 6d will average 76. Both are auto-death.
The average hit from 7d is 24.5; 6d is 21. Neither is getting through a level III plate, on average.
Just for the record, 5.56x45mm NATO from a 14.5" or 16" barrel does 4d+2 pi and is averaging 16 per hit, doing 56 to the skull, almost auto death. It doesn't penetrate the level III plate either.
