>I forgot to state the obvious for a 7mm version of 308. That is that it’s just 6.8x51. Literally the same thing but the bullet is 2 human hairs wider (0.007”)
The worst part about 6.8x51mm is the unrealistic 80k PSI goal they set for themselves. They are destroying the guns chambered in it. If they lowered the pressure to 68-71k and lengthened the barrel to 14.5" (as opposed to those 11" standard models), then maybe we wouldn't see the guns destroy themselves so fast.
