Hey Sgt-
Thanks for the info. My thinking on this had more to do with the abundance of ammo that might be available but also that there are probably a fair amount of .308 rifles out there. But given the popularity of 5.56 carbines, perhaps that's a wash.
The issue of weight and carrying capacity vs penetration. But what you are pointing out really puts a dent on .308. But they do seem to be growing in popularity in the civilian market.
So you stick with the 5.56? Would not go with a .308 or 7.62? I am thinking more 4th gen rules than 3rd gen.
