  1. In a certain sense, in this case, selecting the ammo was selecting the rifle. Textron ammo only works in Textron action. A standard action can't even extract it from the chamber. True Velocity ammo is attractive, due to it's backup compatibility with any 7.62 NATO firearm, but to provide the requested performances in the NGSW it requires a longer barrel, so a bullpup, to comply with the required dimensions, so it would have been a competition for the best bullpup. SIG ammo can be used in various configurations, but, choosing it, you decide to not explore further the advantages of polymer cased ammos.

  2.  @cm-pr2ys  Sig Sauer rifle can't even exctract the Textron ammo form the chamber. That ammo is really action-specific.

  3.  @Illestrapper  It has. SIG barrel is recoiling, to mitigate felt recoil, so no accuracy advantage, sorry.

  4.  @smithnwesson990  The entire 50 rounds belt of the SIG? OMG! What should we do without 50 entire rounds, between having to open the action to change belt?
