  1. While the M338 does give boots on the ground considerably more firepower, its no replacement for 50 cal in any way First is rounds, high-explosive incendiary armor-piercing (HEIAP), Mk 211 Mod 0 aka Raufoss MK-211 and saboted light armor penetrator (SLAP), M903 has anti-materiel asnd anti personnel properties that no 338 round could ever match. Second and most important is energy its possible for vest to stop 338 round however with big 50 even if the vest stopped penetration, the target will die from shock from the shear amount kinetic energy of the impact So no 338 is no replacement for it

  4. No it does not Bullpup biggest problem is that changing mags is not as smooth as regular weapons With one hand, I press the mag release while simultaneously pulling a fresh mag and keep the weapon trained on target Bullpup does the same but with regular rifle , when I reload, both hands are already on the rifle whereas the bullpup, I have to move my hand back into position Bullpups only use is a sniper rifle not battle rifle

  5.  @m4j0r3x  No recoil is not a good trade off when you need to change mags quickly For sniper rifles, the Bullpup is ideal but not for combat Some companies are trying to improve the bullpup but it still has disadvantages that wont go away so easily France adopted the HK-416 to replace its own FAMAS despite the availability of newer Bullpup designs
