    Ok, but the about 4.16 gram projectile is still weak I think to penetrate Level 4 Vest. That's why I was saying if the over round was lengthened the projectile too would be by at least 2 gram and allow more propellant charge to be used. Wait we can use Tungsten and steel alloy instead, it would...

By longer round I mean bullets of 5.56x45mm but they will be longer than usual 5.56x45mm to carry more propellant charge so that more gas is produced during deflagration to increase amount of gas to...

    What do you mean? I want INSAS to be replaced by Excalibur. To penetrate Chinese BR vests we have to use longer rounds carrying more propellant charge and the barrel needs to be lengthened so the more gas is produced and is allowed to push the projectile for longer period. In return Excalibur's...

    That was not real reason. I can discuss it elsewhere. But I do think Type 81 is better than INSAS. I cant wait for INSAS to be replaced. Does any side here use 160mm mortars? Indians have to be careful with howitzers, last time in 1967, Field Guns saved us.
