The HV rifle round pairs well with the L96 rifle

These rounds increase your weapon's muzzle velocity by approximately 20%. When crafting, these require more than triple the amount of gunpowder and 50% more metal frags on a per bullet basis when compared to standard 5.56. Best used in high accuracy weapons at long distances, or in silenced weapons to offset the velocity penalty.

This is a crutch. With its high cost it is not worth using over normal rifle ammo. The only circumstances that I would use this is if I was roof camping with L96 or I have so much GP that I just do not care.
