[QUOTE="fiscally_irresponsible, post: 4315728, member: 57557"] I don't understand the lack of intermediate cartridges above .22 or 5.45X39. The biggest bore military cartridge I am aware of is the new .277 fury. Why are intermediate cartridges chambered in such small calibers? Is this related to weight saving or just the modern idea of fragmenting and tumbling bullets in infantry weapons? ***Within a military context*** [/QUOTE]
