I definitely like the 5.56 round, it's an awesome round, it has a good zing to it and at three to five hundred yards doesn't drop too bad, No punch for big game.
I like the 308 round as well, Has a lot of punch and accurate.
6.8 MM I like that cartridge too but...
What about 8MM mauser, 270 Reminton, the classic 30 06 round, the 6.5 Swede?
I know that the magwell would have to conform, Upper, Barrel, buffer and recoil spring, God knows what else. I am pretty sure that there is a demand out there because this AR platform after all is a proven platform and it's not going anywhere. It seems that you could build an AR platform to adapt to these cartridges albeit a slightly longer upper and lower. It is a gas blow back vs rotating lugs I could understand.. If someone makes ARs in these calibers, let me know.
