Battle rifles are, and it can be a religious thing sometimes, generally described as using a "major" cartridge while assault rifles use an intermediate cartridge.

Gimme a 7.62 or .30-06 over 5.56 anyday!
Of these 'top 10 lists' of battle rifles that were compiled, the beloved G3 is not mentioned. The FAL is awesome, but has it's lesser points. (Gas system, etc.) And Israelis had problems with sandy combat conditions and their FALs in wars past. Not an issue with a G3. Absolutely rugged, brute, practically indestructible and reliable. (And accurate)
