It fights like a 7.62x39 in an M4 at close range, and hits like a .308 would at long range, in a package the size of an M4. And it's not a barrel burner. To me, it's the ultimate general purpose round and system. I'm less interested in the new 6mm ARC; if I wanted paper-targets match round that is 6mm PPC, i would have gotten 6mm PPC.
This is what really got me interested in the cartridge. As far as I can tell it is one hell of a jack of all trades design.
