NOT NGSW, but probably related nonetheless. FN releases to market a new .264USA rifle and machine gun package.
FN America (FNA) is previewing an entirely new weapon system unlike anything you have seen at the 2023 SHOT Show in Las Vegas, called the Lightweight Intermediate Caliber Cartridge (LICC) Individual Weapon System (IWS), it has four purpose-built components: • Lightweight ammunition family • Improved Performance Carbine • 25-round purpose-built, polymer magazine • Signature Suppressor All of...
Read more from soldiersystems.netUses a bimetallic casing, like SIG. Designed to be suppressed most of the time. Otherwise is a fairly conventional Tri-Lug Long Stroke Gas Piston rifle. In the vein of the Robinson XCR. 7-9lbs, claimed 20% ammo weight savings vs an equivalent conventional brass cartridge.
The original request was put out back in 2018, this TFB article covers it as the original page seems to have went down.
Interesting stuff, I suppose.

Interesting, but unfortunately not the military GP or AP bullet. Not sure which bullet was used.
The video shows close-ups of 135gr FMJ, but the narrator says, "...identical to Sierra MatchKing."

So, what exactly they have re-invented so groundbreakingly - the Remington model 8, the Roth Krnka rifle, or the CSRG m1918 machine rifle?

I consider the project a failure, since it's not chambered in 8mm Lebel.
More seriously, there was an experiment in the 20s with Model 8s chambered in .30 Remington. Browning couldn't get it reliable enough, or powerful enough, for the US Army.
