Quote:Back to your regularly scheduled programming.Sounds good to me. So, which approach do you prefer?
- John's idea of replacing 5.56 and 7.62 NATO with 6.5 Grendel.
- Paul's proposal to keep 5.56 for carbines, and replace 7.62 MMGs with LMGs firing a 6.5 Grendel +P+ heavy bullet load.
- Tony's concept of a "stretched" 6.5 Grendel (and a hypothetical "idealized" bullpup rifle) to replace 5.56 and 7.62 NATO.
- Cris's 7x46 (or 6.86x46) UIAC to replace 5.56 and 7.62 NATO.
