I'll probably be .308/7.62NATO til I die, no excuses. But I am going to have to find a comparative article on the .308 Vs. 6.8 Western. The 6.8SPC, yeah you can have it. I have a couple 30cal rifles for different applications. If I were to run out and buy something new it would probably be a .270/6.5 Don't own a 5.56 and don't want one.

I'll stick with .308 or 30.06. Are the ballistic characteristics that much different from 6.5mm to a 6.8mm to a 7mm?

You can see from this article that the two 6.8 rounds they compared are very different. It's all about powder charge, bullet weight and shape. I only bring up the 270/6.5 because that is where the Military is headed as the basic Infantry Rifle. Probably going to be on an AR platform still.

I would recommend the new 8.6 blackout but right now it’s pretty expensive
