'Norwegian soldiers becoming ill after firing the HK 416 with NAMMO Ammo??

Heads up.. Found on another fora, in Swedish, can't conferm..

Check your ammo..


Quote:
Symptoms including nausea, fever, headache, severe coughing for several hours after shooting, sleeping disorders, sore joints.. Large groups of soldiers unable to continue training for the rest of the day after firing the rifle. It is probably related to the powder gases from the new lead free round from NAMMO, and not the rifle itself - i used that title, it was the title from the newspaper article. Unfortunately, it is in norwegian.

NAMMO: ( assume it is this type of ammunition described here. )
