Gene,

Hasn't bolt strength and durability been fixed by the current AA design? Or is it still significantly more subject to breakage than 5.56 bolts?

Was magazine reliability just a QC issue with C-Products, and would be taken care of in the event 6.5 Grendel were to be adopted by the military? Or do you think it's inherent to the cartridge, a problem that would remain no matter what company makes them?

(Despite the past claims by 68forums members that 6.8 SPC mags have superior reliability, two of the manufacturers -- PRi and Barrett -- have reportedly been in the process of redesigning their mags.

How likely is it that cartridges like 6.8 SPC and 6.5 Grendel are just too fat for the box in which they must fit?)
