I've read a lot of information regarding 5.56mm barrier blind ammunition, particularly on Lightfighter, but never had the opportunity to seen the effects of such rounds firsthand. In addition I've got a few questions that I feel weren't addressed or I may have missed the answers to. I hope these questions can be answered by those who have had experience with such loads.
To what distance can you expect the barrier blind characteristics to be effective? <100 yards?
With the advent of barrier blind loads such as the Mk318 SOST are we seeing the capability gap of the carbine and the battle rifle closing?
I've always read auto glass and walls being the main concern for 5.56 barrier blind loads. How about other material such as concrete? Can you expect barrier blind loads to penetrate through these?
Thanks everyone.
