[QUOTE="db-2, post: 247429, member: 4743"] But a 223 hit soldier lives for another fight while a 30-06 caliber hit soldier will not with the same hit (steel jacket and no expansion while, as I was told, the 223 would tumble when it hit). I believe they told me to shoot in burst of three anyways (was hard to count at certain time, only goal was to put as many bullets in the general direction as possible and for that one did need many bullets). but hell I was artillery and had the infantry to protect the base. When one rifle is been made to just put bullets out and i doubt if a soldier in the jungle in a fire fight would aim, then a lighter load, more bullets, bigger clip it would stand to reason as Custer found out with his single shot springfields against the indians with there Henry that was loaded on Sunday and shot all week. It was always nice to have that M-60 in ones unit. A lot to carry and maybe needed another soldier to help with ammno but. So yes I may agree Bed, i just wish mine was more dependable at certain times. db [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Not sure of the weight of my 200 plus 30-06 shells but i would hate to lug around in the jungle. And then it would take me three times longer to shoot the same amount of shells with my 8 round clip so maybe less shells, bullet hole might be bigger, and hell today i doubt if i would make it pass the second clip anyways. If noise helps out it seems those BAR sure made a lot more noise. db [/QUOTE]
