Ballistic, making 5,56mm round more deadly

[GIAT industries 0]

Hi everyone!

I've been playing arma 2 for years now and I've always been frustrated with the lack of "kinetic energy" of the 5.56 rounds.

I know that in reality, the 5.56 round is less powerful than the 7.62 round.

Most of the time, I use the RH M16/M4 addons. When you shoot 2 rounds in the enemy's face at 200-300m, the guy is still alive!

I like the firepower of the BAF's L115 sniper rifle...

Does anyone know what do I need to change to make a rifle more "powerful"?

Thanks

Fixed, next time use the report function to request to delete a thread. ;)

yes - but m16 in game so accurate - that's why is not so deadly - 500m real dispersion

Yeah, well, the L115 fires .338 magnum, which is almost 9mm and weighs around three to four times more than a 5.56 NATO round. So i think this is clearly a firepower you won't get with any 5.56 if you want to stick to a minimum of realism.

Anyway, you'd probably have to tinker with the configs to create an addon, a quick search brought up this thread that could interest you.

Good luck!
