As I expected, 6.5mm CT is as bulky and heavy as 7.62mm CT.

6.5mm CT carbine needs more development. Current weight is as heavy as an M1 Garand, and it's two inches longer than an M4 carbine, despite having a barrel that's two inches shorter.

7.62mm CT machine gun looks good. Weighs 14.7 pounds, and convertible to 6.5mm.
