It is considered a high-tier caliber.		The '''4.73x33mm Caseless''' (also known as '''4.73x33mm DM11''' or simply referred to as '''4.7mm Caseless''') is an unique caliber of caseless design, created and designed by '''Winchester''' for '''Heckler & Koch''', and it designed for the [[Heckler ＆ Koch G11K2\|G11 series]] of rifles. It is considered a high-tier caliber.
-
-	~~=== Real-life data ===~~
-	~~The story of the 4.73x33mm caliber is closely tied to that of the '''G11''' rifle.~~
-
-	In the late 60s, the West German military was researching a brand new weapon design to replace their battle-proven, but aging [[Heckler ＆ Koch G3A3\|G3 rifles]]. A conglomeration of companies were tasked on the job, which was named the ''Gesellschaft für Hülsenlose Gewehrsysteme'' (Corporation for Caseless Systems, in German). This conglomerate was composed of '''Heckler & Koch''', '''Dynamit Nobel''' and '''Hensoldt Wetzlar'''. H&K was in charge of the weapon design, Dynamit Nobel designed an all-new caliber design, and Hensoldt created the optics to be integrated within the new weapon system.
-	This, along with the participation of '''Winchester''' for the production of ammunition, resulted in one of the most avant-garde and audacious gambles in the history of firearm technology, and one of H&K's most prized brainchilds: the [[Heckler ＆ Koch G11K2\|G11 assault rifle]], which would fire the brand new 4.73x33mm DM11 round, of caseless design.
-
-	The 4.73x33mm DM11's design was very much in advance for its time. It wasn't the first firearm that attempted using caseless ammunition, but the G11 is certainly the most well-known, and technologically speaking the most accomplished. Caseless ammunition makes ammunition cheaper to produce, eliminates the need to extract and eject empty casings during normal operation, and is generally thought as less polluting. It is, however, known to be more sensitive to heat and damage, though several refinements of the DM11 round eliminated most of those problems.
-
-	The round was slated to be West Germany's service caliber, replacing [[7.62x51mm NATO]], but with the adoption of the new standard NATO caliber, the [[5.56x45mm NATO]], and the reunification of Germany, the G11 never entered full production, nor did 4.7mm caseless ammunition, despite both being technologically mature and ready for mass-production; the decision being political and economical in nature. The newly reunified Germany and its Bundeswehr turned to the cheaper and NATO-compliant [[Heckler ＆ Koch G36\|G36 rifle]] instead, which went on to become the Bundeswehr's service rifle.
