5.56x45mm NATO ammunition (XNDUIW)

The 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition is a part of the Ammunition conversions, though it was developed in the 1980's under STANAG 4172 with NATO alongside many allies not affiliated with NATO itself. It is dimensionally similar to the .223 Remington cartridge developed by the company of it's name in the 1960's.
In 1954, the 7.62x51mm NATO rifle cartridge was selected as the first standard NATO rifle cartridge, though it did perform well, and it may penetrate from 38-51 centimeters into soft tissues, though impacting the body may cause the bullet to yaw and then fragment at the cannelure, and then cause greater damage when it fragments, imparting greater damage, making it a 3SK to 2SK to the player when the target is hit, and proponents of the hydrostatic shock theory contested it that a shockwave front he bullet results in wounding effects beyond the tissue ripped apart by the bullet and fragments, however, the opposite involves that tissue disruption and temporary cavity formation is the cause of such disruption.
There are many variations of the 5.56x45mm NATO magazine, considering that the official caliber is used by various weapons throughout the XNDUIW community and it's rather common.
