Comments by "Titanium Rain" (@ChucksSEADnDEAD) on "The German Army's Ammo Problem in WW2" video.
Thanks for the information. It's really crazy that sintering was used at that time.

The FBI has a list of approved ammo so any agency that doesn't feel like running an expensive reliability test can use that.

The issue is that cartridges have to respect the external dimensions or else they won't fit the chamber. So the only option would be thinning out the case mouth. I can see damage to the case occuring during loading or violent feeding in a machine gun due to the weakening of the case.

Heat conductivity will pass more heat towards the barrel. You want lower conductivity to use the case as thermal sink.

@QoraxAudio That's not true, in fact True Velocity posted thermal video evidence that their polymer cases eject more heat out of the gun precisely because of their lower thermal conductivity.
