SAS wants to go back to 7.62
The British newspaper (Daily) Mail reports that the Special Air Service (SAS) is considering switching back to larger 7.62x51mm bullets as they believe the current 5.56x45mm do not effectively incapacitate enemies. It should be noted that the (Daily) Mail is known for sensationalism and no other sources have confirmed this report.
According to a report in the British newspaper (Daily) Mail, the Special Air Service (SAS) is planning to switch back to weapons in 7.62x51mm. The use of 5.56x45mm would not prevent an opponent from returning fire with just one hit, according to the cited reasoning. It should be noted that the (Daily) Mail is known for being a sensationalist British newspaper, and there have been no other sources confirming the report at this time.
