I'm following a debate about the proper load for a 5.56x45mm AR. Note that I say, proper; not best. They're basically attempting to emulate a 7.62x51mm gun without any of the drawbacks of such a gun.
It's pretty clear that they're not really getting that there are inherent limitations to the platform.
Case capacity, cartridge overall length and the caliber itself means that it's never going to be a .308.
It's sure going to be much lighter and handier though.
It's amusing to watch them try.
It might be better if they approached it from a "what do I want my rifle to do?" angle. From that perspective an alternative caliber or even a rifle that isn't an AR might be obvious.
I think they place they are coming from is a place I've been. This is the gun I have, I can't really afford what I want, let's make this one do.
