[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 502688, member: 15748"] joe0121, really not that much of a leap; just switching out the barrel and bolt, and removing the magazine spacer, and you've just turned your 7.62x51 into a 300 Win Mag. That's what the army had planned when they first fielded this system back in the late '80s. Just seems like it lost something in translation, and now they're "discovered" the idea all over again. Go figure. Somehow, I get the feeling that "Dilbert" is a popular cartoon strip in certain circles of the defense industry. Then again, maybe too close to home. [/QUOTE]
