I can safely say we wont be doing belts of Mk262.
It's supposed to be a match-grade marksman ammunition for rifles like the M38 (DMR role of the M27 IAR), Mk.12 SPR and the old SAM-R and SDM-R rifles.
It's certainly not a round intended to be used for high-volume machine-gun fire.

We will think about M995

We've now added a limited selection of magazines for the M249 with M995 ammunition. The round is capable of penetrating 12mm of RHA equivalent.

The mags have tracers every 5th round as-per the DODIC AA02 distribution of M995 linked belts for the M249.
For now, we only intend to have it available in the form of 100rnd soft pouches (i.e. no 200rnd soft pouches or plastic boxes for the M249, nor STANAG mags for rifles).

Classnames will be:

rhsusf_100Rnd_556x45_M995_soft_pouch
rhsusf_100Rnd_556x45_M995_soft_pouch_ucp
rhsusf_100Rnd_556x45_M995_soft_pouch_coyote
