How many rounds does a bandoleer for the M240B machine gun hold?

A bandoleer for the M240B machine gun holds 100 rounds. This configuration typically allows for efficient handling and transportation of ammunition during operations. The M240B uses linked ammunition, and the 100-round bandoleer design is intended to provide a balance between manageable weight and ammunition capacity, enabling operators to maintain a higher rate of fire when needed. This capacity is particularly useful in combat situations where sustained fire can be necessary to suppress enemy forces.

The other options reflect lower or higher capacities that do not match the standard bandoleer design for this specific weapon system. Having a clear understanding of ammunition handling, including the amount each bandoleer carries, is vital for effective ammunition management in the field.
