Is It All +P?

With only a couple of exceptions, 6.8x51mm appears to all be +P.

That changes my calculations a little.

.277 Fury 7d pi.  G$0.85, 0.043 lb. per round.

.277 Fury Match 7d pi +1 to Acc.  G$1.70 per round.

.277 Fury Match HP 7d(0.5) pi+ +1 to Acc.  G$1.70 round.

.277 Fury Match +P 8d-1 pi +1 to Acc.  G$2.55 per round.

.277 Fury Match HP +P 8d-1(0.5) pi+ +1 to Acc.  G$2.55 round.

6.8x51mm XM1168 AP 5d(2) pi-.  This is the "practice" ammo that's normal pressure.  G$1.28 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1169 AP Match 5d(2) pi-.  +1 to Acc.  G$2.55 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1170 APHC +P 8d-1(2) pi-.  G$2.55 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1184 APHC +P Match 8d-1(2) pi-.  +1 to Acc.  G$3.83 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1184A1 APDU +P 9d+1(2) pi- inc.  G$3.83 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1186 AP +P 5d+1(2) pi-.  G$1.91 per round.

6.8x51mm XM1188 APFSDS +P 11d+2(2) pi- with 50% boost to range (1,050/7,500).  G$5.10 per round.

6.8x51mm Aeroshell SLAP APDS +P 10d(2) pi- with 50% boost to range (1,050/7,500).  G$1.66 per round.

6.8x51mm HAPI API AP Incendiary +P 5d+1(2) pi- inc.  G$2.87 per round.

6.8x51mm NM142 HEIAP:  APHEX Incendiary +P 8d-1(2) pi- inc follow-up 1d-2 cr ex.  G$7.65 per round.

It should be noted that +P made the ST of both the M7 and M250 11 instead of 10.  Remember the average infantryman is going to have a ST of 10 which means they're at -1 to their (not excessively high) skill.
