[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 4752189, member: 5958"] Works well for shotguns and the new polymers can be engineered pretty strong. Saw on Fox site the billion dollar product, a plastic that does not bind itself so tightly to its neighbor it can't be unbound, I think that is the discovery. This will allow for plastics to be re-used forever.... So, that thinking in reverse suggests a polymer can be built strong enough to push a 55 gr bullet down a barrel at around 2800 FPS. The expended casing would be useless to the enemy and could be color coded to blend with snow, sand or tropics. I used to carry so much AR ammo to berm guard I could barely walk. Anything to make that load lighter is welcome. [/QUOTE]
