I response to bord7: bord is correct; that's the primary issue behind the 5.56mm round, and why we've been looking at the 6.8mm and 7.62 rounds (<- again). I've not been able to figure out how the 5.56mm weapons in this game are able to kill anyone in less than half a dozen rounds.

@ pete: that's the thing; both of those weapons are just so far beyond incredibly fucking reliable that you just wouldn't believe it; especially the SCAR-H: a powerful round working a robust, solid action, and designed and constructed to incredible tolerances. I can honestly say that it's one of, if not THE, finest infantry weapons in the world today. And if you want to make it more realistic, the SCAR-H would do the same damage and have the same modifiers as the EBR, while retaining its low recoil. Your idea wouldn't do much except hurt M16/M4/l86 users. In res
