Ammunition weight is an important criterion in the PDW debate. It needs to compact and light, including the carried ammunition.
The venerable .45ACP firing 230gn projectiles can be eliminated for this reason alone however its impact on flesh relative to supersonic rounds renders it out of the question. Similarly the .50Beo and the 300 Blackout. A 300rd load-out is too heavy relative to 5.56.
