.277 Fury versus .277 SIG Fury
Hi, should we name the article .277 Fury OR .277 SIG Fury? The cartridge is designated as the .277 SIG Fury by the SAAMI .
Non hybrid XM1186 specs
There is only passing mention of the XM1186 general purpose (conventional all brass case) round. From what I understand, the XM1186 is what would be used most of the time with the XM1188 being reserved for front line tip of the spear operations and only when necessary as it will wear out the rifles if they are fed a steady diet of that ammunition. Can someone find out what the specs are on the XM1186? Sig sells both ammunition commercially, with the XM1188 being called "Hybrid Elite" and the XM1186 just called "Elite." I believe the non hybrid version will be of more interest commercially as it can be fired in conventional rifle designs.DrHenley (talk) 13:35, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Possible error
For the 140 grain, 9 gram round, the quoted specs are 825 mps muzzle velocity for 3840 joule muzzle energy. 9 gram at 825 mps yields about 3063 joule. 9 gram at 925 mps yields about 3850 joule. It therefore appears that either the velocity or the energy is off. Whoodedswan (talk) 08:26, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
