A 13.3 Pound Gun That Offers No Advantage Over An 11 Pound FAL Is A Bad Plan?

Who knew?

The FAL isn't suppressed and doesn't have optics, but the XM157 has a failure rate high enough that you're using the irons as a matter of course anyway...

I, for one, am shocked, SHOCKED, to discover that getting .270 Winchester velocities out of a 13" barrel causes excessive barrel wear.

If only the entire reloading and wild-cat communities had not already figured that out.  If only they had not noticed that recently but decades ago.

Physics is an unforgiving bitch.

The ghost of SLA Marshal is saying, "I fucking told you so!"
