One Cartrodge not a Box: 4.6x30mm HK by Fiocchi new brass with “G.F.L 4.6×30” Head-Stamp and loaded with a FMJ (Full Metal Jacket) projectile.

History of the4.6x30mm HK Cartridge:
The 4.6x30mm is a proprietary cartridge designed in 2007/2008 for the HK, MP7 machine gun, although other firearms may now be chambered in this caliber.
With a hardened steel core AP (Armor Piercing) FMJ (Full Metal Jacket) the 4.6x30mm projectile can penetrate 22 layers of Kevlar or a Kevlar helmet at 50 yards.
The round was designed as a competitor to the 5.7x28mm round developed by Fabrique Nationale.
In comparison, the 4.6x30mm fired out of the MP7 is  a little slower and offers a slightly shorter range and reduced terminal ballistics than the 5.7x28mm fired out of the P90.
The 4.6x30mm is one of the latest versions of an HK project that was looking to replace the5.56x45mm NATO (.223 Remington) with a shorter AP  (Armor Piercing) cartridge to reduce weight and recoil and yet still able to  penetrate of body armor and stopping power of the heavier 5.56 NATO cartridge.
