There will be only two (initially) bullets offered; a 135 and a 150. OK, fine. They will be running at about 3000 and 2900 fps, give or take. That's smack dab .308 territory WRT weight and velocity. Yeah, I get how a .277" bullet will have some better numbers than a similar one in .308" but you're paying for it with an extra 20kpsi!
What's the real gain here? Not saying I'm against it but I'm unclear on what is so much better.
