I don't understand what a 6.5mm Creedmoor machine gun would be used for? What introduce yet another cartridge choice and logistical requirement? Need 5/56, 7.62, .50, 9mm, .40s and now 6.5mm ......

Wouldn't this MG only be sensible if all the common rifles also were upgraded to 6.5 mm?

And yes, the Swedes had it right, with the original a hundred years ago.





From what I hear, read, etc.. several of the "specialists" are being switched to the 6.5CM for many of the reasons mentioned in the article you posted on 6.5CM vs .308
