Swiss Rifle

[mswestfall]

I have a Swiss friend that said he uses a 5.76 mm Swiss Army Rifle. I've Googled "Swiss Army Rifle" and 5.76 mm

The best hits I get are:
Model 1889 7.5 x 53.5 and 7.5 x 54.5 GP-90, GP-90/3 and GP-90/23
SG-550 (series) all are 5.56 x 45 NATO

He has two rifles. One was his fathers circa 1960-65. The other is his circa 1985-90.

Is there such a thing as a 5.76 mm Swiss Army Rifle?

He probabbly means 5.56 caliber the Swiss use the 550 551 552 rifles.

For all things Swiss ammo.

He's probably got one of those older models, and has the 5 and 7 backwards.

Or makes wonky handloads.
