It sounds like they're fixing to make 6.5cm more of a 7.62 battle rifle replacement than a 5.56 replacement. Weren't they working on replacing 5.56 with one of the newer 6.8 cartridges, or am I just behind the times?
Agreed. 308 is fine and all for what it is, but the consensus has been that the 6.5cm will carry more energy out past 400y. It seems like 6.5cm is a no brainer if it has enough energy to easily drop game at close range and is superior to 308 further out.
