Military Adopting OTM Round

OTM being Open Tip Match. Apparently it’s not considered to be expanding ammo for the purposes of the Hague Convention, so it’s legal to use in military applications.

   Sweet; hopefully larger bulk manufacturing will drive down prices.

   Woo Hoo! Can you say 5.56 hardball surplus?

   Round:

   M855 will stay in the system until it’s used up. The USMC is unlikely to surplus any ammo stockpiles.
