Hey then just give them all metal storms right? Or a 100 round Mk19 
box. Sure it weighs more than the weapon but so what. The grunts just 
want to hose every target down right?

The whole point of OCSW is that the sight gives you really accurate 
means of getting the HE direct on the target rather than having to 
use Kentucky windage after firing a few rounds. Fewer rounds to 
incapacitate a target is better, no?
