Be awesome if they used the 215 berger hybrid
What would be awesome from Sig would be:
-rifle small parts available for purchase…NOW!
-a lower rate of malfunction in their MPX and MCX rifles
-.300 blackout barrel kits for their MCX rifles
is the MV a typo? That seems low for a 300wm. Black Hills is pushing the same 190grn smk at 2950fps. There are better bullets out there these days such as the berger 215 or 230.
Problem with the Bergers is getting them to work well in a wide field of rifles-SMKs are much better for that and hence why the military is still using 190 & 220 SMKs for 300WM. The lower MV is probably to alleviate issues across a lot of rifles as well. I have an AWM and it’s handled mil ammo fine with no pressure issues, but I’ve had to kick the bolt open using ABM ammo (shoots like a laser with it though). I’m going with the lower MV being for safety and better reliability in a wider number of rifles.
