30-06 HCAR Given the FPSRussia Treatment
Now available to the general public, Kyle (FPSRussia) got one of the first cracks at the Ohio Ordnance Works Heavy Counter-Assault Rifle. Ohio left no portion of the design untouched, stripped significant weight from the design and adding modern touches including a hydraulic buffer.
The watermelon test was particularly spectacular with the 30-06 rounds. FPS makes handling it look easy. Ohio Ordnance has pulled out a lot of the recoil. Hit the video for all the juicy destructive testing.

That thing is completely over the top and pointless. Only some gun nut would want something like that.
(Long pause)
Oh my God I want that so bad.
Yeah, the German's didn't like it to much either, because the .30-06Sprnfld. (7.62.63mm) had the nasty habit of going through brick walls, instead of bouncing off brick walls like the 7.92x57mm Mauser did.
