I don't want to derail this thread again, but CT ammo was a straight upgrade, and high pressures are becoming trendy right now and would be a straight upgrade with new barrel metallurgy. That there haven't been any significant advancements in recent history is completely false.
Hell, the G11 had HMX propellants that could have been the next big thing after smokeless powder. The technology is right there, governments just refuse to fund its adoption. It's really the US's responsibility as NATO's largest member but they fuck it up every time.
