The military is behind the civilians in this regard
And has been since the 40s
Thats why the SOF guys just adopted 6.5 cm
We beta test for them
They adopted the 6.5????????
Last summer
The creedmoor?
SPC
Rebarreling some SR25s for it
Oh
it took them nearly 20 years to make that choice

Shitty article.
I was also wrong it looks like full change out from 7.62
.300 hasn't even been around that long i think, .458 SOCOM has which would be the better choice imo. The point they are going for is the sbr performance, or at least that what national defense said
but that wouldn't make sense if they are rebarreling sr25s
@TwinVickers becuase its not 6.5 special
Its creedmoor lol
it's impossible to read one article for facts anymore, journalism has been overpowered by blogging
Its more who the person the info came from
http://soldiersystems.net/2018/03/23/ussocom-adopts-6-5-cm/
that's USSOCOM
the one I read was about Army
......
Thats the new office of procurement request for infantry weapons
the article says USSOCOM, i'm not saying you are wrong
i'm saying that whatever I read was specific about army.
this doesn't mean you need to do "....." and reaffirm your view
it means we have different sources
No i agreed with you.
The army put out for selection process a 6.5mm in an infantry rifle
6.5 spc is one option floating around
ok, i misread that then. apologies
6.5 creedmoor is pointless
ooga booga i have a sling
who wants to get rocked
Like literally pointless to adopt
6.5 grendal as a standard issue makes sense...
But creedmoor as a sniper rifleš¤£ give me a fucking breakš¤£
Like your marginal improvement over 7.62 NATO is pointless as a sniper...When you should be using a fucking .300 win mag in the first place
