.277, 68x51 vs lvl IV plate

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."

military rounds may pierce but anyways deformation is enough to kill someone

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.

Notable for 2 reasons.

1. Theres at least some thought to possibly using the rifle unsuppressed

2. Wayyyyyy more important: Steel Mags for NGSW seems confirmed. All photos shown with steel mags, which a few months ago SSD had reported SIG was developing.

If so thats full M14 life...
