What's a .277 Furry?

What's a .277 Furry?

Just found this.

In addition to the rifle, they are commercializing the 6.8mm ammunition developed for the US Army’s Next Generation Squad Weapon program as the 277 SIG FURY round. SIG claims to be getting 3000 FPS velocity from a 16″ barrel when fired from the CROSS. This owes to the cartridge’s three-piece design case which features a steel case and brass head held with a clip. This is the same cartridge design being offered to the military, but now coming to you.

.277 Furry (yif, yif)

 

[Kirk Freeman]

.277 Fury is a wildcat of the 6.8, a result of the NGSW program that ZIG ZAUER is doing for Big Army.

 

[KokomoDave]

I'd like that in 6.5!

 

[roscott]

Uh oh. 6.4 pounds in creedmoor, would be 8.5-ish with suppressor and scope.

My wallet is in danger.

The velocity number is worthless without bullet weight! I found no info on the web about the weight, so it could be 40 gr or some other minimal weight bullet with poor characteristics.

6.8 Army is 120-130 grains so I would anticipate the .277 Furry (yif, yif) will be the same.

Nice, I want one

It's 140 grains at 3000 fps for the Fury. Sig is pushing pressure levels to 80K PSI using cases with steel heads and brass bodies.

It's 140 grains at 3000 fps for the Fury.

From a 16” barrel, no less.

Physics says barrel life will be terrible.

Is it just me or does it look like Sig making the Cross is their attempt at giving Q the finger over the Fix rifle?

It's not just you. That was basically my reply earlier.
