I think it's still that old M16 bugaboo ,it was a crappy weapon system we used in Vietnam and seems after all these years there are still problems,like the old adage you can put lipstick on a pig.........

On paper the M855A1 sounds like an awesome round, lead free as well I like the SCFMJ idea with the penetrator...Sounds as if it will do the job 4 times over the regular M855....I like the bad guys to far away when engaged.

Thanks for letting us know SP5 Mark Kuzinski that preliminary results of an Army test to see how the service's M855A1 5.56mm round performs in Marine Corps weapons show that the enhanced performance round causes reliability and durability problems in the Marine M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle, service officials say.
