She sure is a sexy beast.

.7 MOA average accuracy at 1,000
Is that a .7" hole at a kilometre!?
Or .7" MOA at 100m stretched to a 7" hole at a km?
I believe there is a new .300 WinMag bullet that is giving the .338 a run for its money. can't remember the weight, but makes sense if they're putting barrels out in .308, 300, and 338

A lot of lefty shooters LIKE right-hand actions as it puts the loading & ejection port in easy reach of their off-side hand, and also lets them work the bolt without taking their firing hand off the grip.Most semi-auto weapons can be used without a problem BUT bolt actions are a bit more of a pain to smoothly operate.
Fuzzy math at its best...80 million for 5000 units - that's $16,000 per set up - seems like a nice waste of my tax dollars
Honady has the 208 gr AMAX with a BC of .633, and Berger has 230 gr bullet with BC of .714I believe there is a new .300 WinMag bullet that is giving the .338 a run for its money. can't remember the weight, but makes sense if they're putting barrels out in .308, 300, and 338.
always good to see our guys getting good equipment.
actually, the article says:Fuzzy math at its best...
The award is for more than 5000 units, and millions of rounds of Barnes ammunition.
The article doesn't say how many more than 5000, or how many millions of rounds it includes.
The award is for 5,150 rifle systems, including AAC Titan QD suppressors and 4,696,800 rounds of Barnes ammunition, over 10 years.

I pretty much despise Knights Armament and have a feeling that they've got some kind of ties to whomever awards rifle contracts.

I could go on forever about how the M110 is a complete joke, but I'll limit myself to making this point.
30,000 dollar rifle, improvised comb riser made of foam and tape. Probably more than half of all the other M110's had this modification too.
