Is it dogshit or no?
20mm
12ga is 18.5mm so its marginally better than that.
It's also an explosive compared to just lead you goon.
Yeah how much explosive? 40mm has 5m kill radius and this thing has 3x less explosive than 40mm lol.
Just invest in training and shoot the enemy in the face with a ~5mm it works better than giving him a sunburn with a few inches near miss.
they make 12g frag rounds.
Which 20mm?
It's a stupid idea. There's a reason western nations couldn't make it happen in the 20+ years they toyed with the idea and then gave up on their investment.
It's also airburst, which results in significantly more efficient frag use.
That's still 15% reduction in volume assuming the same projectile length which is absolutely not the case.
Daily reminder that politics and optics, not issues with effectiveness, killed the XM25.
Optics in the political sense, not as in scopes and such*
Rookie mistake.
>Daily reminder that politics and optics, not issues with effectiveness, killed the XM25
It was a bulky, under-powered, unversatile POS that deserved to die.
