BoogieMan Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I noticed today that a M16 can't use .223 rounds. I do not find this surprising, but it is factually inaccurate. Most 5.56x45 weapons can safely fire .223 rounds. You don't even need a different magazine. Not quite as good at longer ranges though. A .223 firearm *can* fire a 5.56 round as well, but it is potentially unsafe since a 5.56 round produces more pressure that could in best case wear out the gun faster, get jammed up inside the mechanism, or worst case make it explode in your face.

Arsenal26 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 What he said... ^ We can only hope that build 41 catches up to what Fenris had all sorted out... ORGM was so amazing and technically correct, right down to scaled real world weights of each firearm, added attachment weigh affecting recoil, damage and range correctly proportioned by cartridge and barrel length.... Currently 5.56 is superior to .308cal and that's a shame... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faalagorn Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 It would be nice if you could mix some ammo types too, risking a malfunction, though I understand it's a stretch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
