The M16 rifle. It ancestor, the ArmaLite AR-15, was chambered for the 5.56x45 M193 cartridge, slightly different from 5.56 NATO loading in having a 55 grain projectile, as opposed to the 62 grain projectile of the NATO M855/SS109 cartridge. The first military rifle designed specifically to accommodate the 62 grain cartridge, however, was the FN FNC, for which the design process began in 1975, and production began in 1977.
