Nothing wrong with the M60 IMO.

Nobody is saying that there's anything wrong w/M60 ammo. It's perfect for use in the M60 machinegun, but as a sniper round, well it may leave a little to be desired in the accuracy at distance department.

Taking out discrete targets at long range isn't the same as suppressive fire, nor is engaging multiple targets rapidly the same either. Each tactic requires different ammo to get the desired result...

"Nothing wrong with the M60 IMO."

Thanks for the comment. My comment was made in jest to a previous post. The M80 round has been used in training in the M24.
