The 30 06 cartridge was better served in rifles other than the Springfield and Garrand that were made for that cartridge. The 308 was better served by other rifles than the M 14 that was desinged for it. I see no intrnisic reason why the 6.5 Grendel is best served by the AR platform. Perhaps the 6.5 Grendel will expand into mainstream usage with the upcomming AK rifles from Europe. Or maybe a different action alltogether.
