My bad. I didn't catch that since "from a machine gun" was on the next line.
Hodgdenreloading.com shows an 85g bullet at 2800fps at 49,000psi from a 24" barrel.
If loaded to the same pressure as 5.56 it might make 3000fps.
Lead free projectiles are mandated? How about radioactive uranium free projectiles?
I thought that was only in California.
I agree that nothing is as good as the 30-06, except when you have to carry all the ammo and the rifle.
There is no one best choice, just a series of compromises.
