Of course, I might not be completely right about the rules of modern warfare.
We never signed the Accords which laid down the law on whats human and whats not. We simply try to abide by the rules if and when we can.

Matchkings, is being use quite a bit, especcially with Spec Ops elements that have grown fond of 77 grain ammo provided by Black Hills. It retains a lot of energy out to around 600 meteres or so, much better than the 62 grain M855 ball we have now.
