    You used a ballistic coefficient almost double the real value. USA civilian market develops for anything that has a market. I don't know I like 556 for the weight & range over 762x39. 308 is a hunter or sniper's weapon, not average infantrymen.

    INSAS Rifle, LMG & Carbine

    INSAS Rifle, LMG & Carbine

    1.) as far as civilian market, think it's better to go for military markets first. Western civilian market has very different conditions & needs. 2.) Insas Lmg doesn't take belt fed ammo, because in most scenarios mmg hmg will not be far. Many countries especially in SE asia will love to have...
