One thing that bothers me about the Tavor design even in 5.56 is the dwell time. I have yet to feel how one cycles, but the gas block location is very close to the chamber. It looks a little shorter than an AR15 CLGS, but I haven't been able to measure one.
The optic mount is also attached to the barrel directly, which was intended to eliminate loss of zero. I personally think that's a terrible idea for a number of reasons:
* g input directly into the optics & electro-optical aiming devices
* heat transfer from the barrel directly into the optics and EO systems
The FS2000 and FN2000 feel like shouldering a large, fat fish. It is impossible to establish a proper cheek-to-stock weld without leaning your head over, or canting the gun, unless you have an extremely narrow mandible, and abnormally-wide inter-pupilary spread.
