Future weapons

Im sitting here watching a rerun of future weapons and he talked about the HK MP7A1 chambered in 4.7X30.
so a quick search of the web turned up some caseless stuff, but nothing else about that round.
Anyone have the ballistics handy on this? 4.7mm would be close to a .17 cal. is this just a nato designation for the .17 Remmy?

ok, so who would have thought HK would list the specs to the ammo.

so its a little smaller and slower than the .17 Remington
