How could or should the 6.5 mm Grendel be improved?

The UK needs to work with the Scandinavian countries, Baltics, and Visegrad 4 to develop a new set of requirements if they are going to steer a new NATO or non-NATO standardization. As western world bankruptcy takes effect, I doubt any of us will find the least bit of support from the holders of the empty purses in Congress or Parliament, unless they see a get-rich quick scheme for themselves due to their district or personal ties to manufacturing that can be steered to financially benefit them.

One approach could be a challenge to a shoot-off of a new family of weapons between the US, the UK, the Scandinavians, the Germans, the Poles, and the Czechs. Everyone has been really infatuated with Stoner's AR-18 operating mechanism, with the Germans copying it with the G36 and XM8,



followed by Magpul with the Masada (now ACR),



The Belgian FN SCAR:



The Czechs and the Bren 805:




I've played with them all, except for the Radom. I like the weight of the SCAR, and the recoil impulse characteristics of the elongated longitudinal cam pin track of Stoner's AR-18 in all of them. The ACR is too heavy for what it is, and needs a diet. The Bren 805 seems like a copy of the SCAR with the receiver, and has good ergos.

I'd like to see a SCAR in 6.5 Grendel set up as a Sniper Support Rifle like they've done with the SCAR-17 7.62 NATO accurized variant for NSW Crane, as well as a DMR/SASS ACR variant in Grendel. The Poles and Czechs might also consider a Grendel demonstrator.
