Which calibers do you personally think will see a rise in popularity (either military, police or civilian) in the next 10 years?

>meme cartridge that was ignored 10 years ago
Yeah, gonna revolutionize everything.
>>
>>29546755
.75
>>
>>29546755
>1350 to 1600 ft/s
nice what kind of ballistics does it have.
>>
>>29546755

50 Beowulf, and 6.5x39.
>>
10mm will dominate.
>>
>>29546755
I hear .22tcm is pretty cool.
>>
>>29548035
This. It's probably a gimmick, but I love it.

I'll take 7.5FK over it
>>
>>29548035
As a 3 year long user, I'm very very happy with it
>>
>>29548165
What gun and what do you use if for? Seems like a less special snowflake 5.7

10 mm is on the rise, even outside /k/ memery. not dramatically, but noticeably.
>>
>>29548008
Im pretty pumped for that 10mm Vector Kriss plans to release. The power of 10mm with the recoil dampening effects of the Kriss action, yes please.
>>
22wmr will make a comeback now that most 17hmr users admit that the cartridge ist anemic and the bullet fucks up game meat too much
>>
>>29548897
>ist
is or isn't?

>>29548897
.22 TCM would honestly make more sense and I'm curious as to what you mean by it being both anemic and being too destructive for meat.

6.5 Grendel

as ArmA III has forseen many years ago

home workshop bullet crafting

5.56x45 HE API here I come
>>
>>29549091
isn't illegal to make your own armor piercing rounds?
>>
>>29549091

5.56mm too small. Go 7.62 or 7.92, just like the Nazis and Commies. SAPHEI
>>
>>29548897
.22wmr is fucked

.17wsm will take its place
>>
>>29549162
I bet you could fit plenty of HE into a .300BLK bullet.
>>
>>29549177
Why not use .17 Hornet instead of .17 wsm?
>>
>>29548871
It has nothing to do with the action dummy, the Vector only has reduced recoil because of the fact that the action is in line with your hand
>>
>>29546786
With the limited info available....shitty. like maybe 300ftlbs. BUT it's supposed to be punch armor and offer really good capacity but who knows. The idea seems OK and there's been a lot of talk about improved mouse calibers around.
>>
>>29549040
>and no broofs were given that day
>>
>>29548871
Hopefully they find a way to reinforce it because it damn near rattles itself to death already with .45
>>
>>29549630
>talking out of your ass
physics must be real hard anon.
>>
>>29549944
I know that guns have a decent amount of flex when firing but jesus, it looks like it's about to snap in half every time it's fired.
>>
>>29549110
Only for pistols.
>>
>>29549974
Go watch slow mo vids of other guns.they whip more than you would think. With the kriss the guts or solid but the housing is a rattle box
>>
>>29549670
This fn five seven all over again
>>
>>29548871
Anyone who has ever shot a vector, especially a FA one agrees that they are trash. Source: I've shot a FA one and it was trash
>>
>>29549630
>it has nothing to do with the action, its the action
uhh okay
>>
>>29546755
>consider myself to be firearm nerd
>strangely attracted to special snowflake cartridges

Yeah, it's going places.
>>
>>29548008
Consider suicide
>>
>>29549162
>7.62
>Not glorious 7mm
Shit, why won't we just use 7TCM
>>
>>29546755
7.5 FK... I hope.
>>
>>29549630
but your wrong...
