How many of you anons have taken the battle rifle pill? I'm fairly inebriated at the moment, but I reckon that .308 would be better than 5.56 for the current chimpout. All I can imagine is a crowd of faggots that don't really mind if they die, they just want you dead. In this case, line em up and knock em down with more effective crowd control.

.308 / 7.62x51 vs 5.56
pros
>penetration
much better penetration through barriers (wood, concrete, etc)
>range
effective range of 800m~1200m max depending on barrel length/ammo/who you ask, vs 600~m of 5.56
cons
<weight
M80 round,147gr FMJ(total 25~g), more than twice the weight of M855, 62gr steelcore penetrator aka "green tips"(total 12~g)
<price
while the popularity of 5.56 has caused its price to surge significantly more than .308 due to panic buying, bulk M80 still remains roughly 50% to 100% more expensive than bulk M193 or M855
neither round can reliably be expected to penetrate and defeat multiple targets, if nothing else than due to bullet deflection (bullet path changes randomly has it passes through substances), and also loss of energy. if you really need barrier penetration and/or greater than 600m range, and cost/weight is not an issue, go for 7.62x51. if, however, you expect to be dealing with targets within 600m, 5.56 will more than likely be a better choice due to being able to carry more and buy more cheaply.
one final note: if cost is not an issue, and you want something in the weight bracket of 5.56 but with greater range/penetration, buy m262 ammo(77gr BTHP). they are very expensive, usually at least twice as much as standard bulk surplus ammo, but have incredible performance gains over M855 or M193.

the only reason we use 556 in military is because ground troops are dependent on force multipliers like air or artilery to get actual kills. Lethality of 556 is too low for a boog scenario, PTR/FAL/AR10 ftw

I don't think most people really understand how important this is. If you're in a vehicle or fixed position it isn't much of an issue, but carrying around even 4 mags of 556 as a foot mobile is noticeable no matter how strong you are.
Lugging around an unnecessary 20lb in a boog is a total nogo for nearly everyone. Serious long distance hikers spend hundreds of dollars to shed 1/2 oz from their kit. The increased water use, calories, fatigue and slowing effect really add up over distance.

I tend to go with the .308 myself but I also think auto is a waste of ammo. A bolt action rifle will do just fine and will be more impervious to any future seizures by the government. At 300 yards plus particularly a bolt action rifle is plenty good. I'd rather spend my money on good night optics particularly thermal. Night time feral pig hunting is generally approved thanks to the nuisance to crops they create. I think that kind of skillset would be optimal training generally.
I'd like to hear some ideas on this pro and con.

There's a whole lot of reasons, prepare for ballistic autism
>"accuracy"
For firearms, "accuracy" is a product of consistency/minimizing variables. Modern 5.56 barrels are typically have either a 1 in 7(most common by far) or 1 in 8(sometimes) twist rate, which favors they heavier side of available bullet types. 77gr bullets are in fact about as large as can be loaded in 5.56 and still fit into standard 2.260" case overall length(COAL) mags. The bullet itself is actually a sierra match king boat tail hollow point(BTHP) with a cannelure, or sometimes open tipped match (OTM) as seen on the actual commercially available Mk262 box. This is the most consistent bullet available for 5.56, and is almost universally used by competition shooters. The distant runner up would be nosler's 77gr BTHP, which in fact was used for the first iteration of Mk262, but was later changed to the SMK due to better consistency(as I remember, could have been some other reason). All of this translates into a bullet capable of sub-MOA(minute of angle - 1 MOA at 100 yards is 1", thereby meaning "sub-MOA" means group sizes of less than 1" at 100 yards) performance, barring a completely shit barrel. Remember, in the world of guns, consistency = accuracy.
>greater range and consistency of performance
Mk262's SMK 77gr BTHP has much greater lethality out to further ranges, due to retaining its energy better than M193/M855s' bullets. This efficiency of energy is roughly represented by the ballistic coefficient(BC) of a bullet. Mk262 has a BC of .362 between 2500 feet per second(FPS) and 3000FPS, according to sierra's website. In my own testing, I get about 2700~2800 FPS out of 18" barrels with Mk262. Conversely, the US Army's Ballistic Research Laboratory measured M193/M855s' bullets as having a BC of .151. While there's a lot that goes into measuring performance and consistency when it comes to ballistics, and BC is by no means the best measurement of a round, it is the easiest and fastest way to illustrate the point.
>terminal performance
Mk262 has much better terminal performance than M193/M855, due to much of what's listed above as well as being a hollow point expanding projectile. Interestingly, or perhaps hilariously, the military is actually barred from using hollow points due to the Geneva Convention, which is probably why they sidestep it by labeling Mk262 as OTM instead. Also, Mk262 is much better in shorter barrel lengths (say 14.5" and below) due to being far less dependent on velocity than M855 and especially M193.
All of this comes at a cost, however. Before the panic buying set in, Mk262/Black Hills 77gr OTM could be had for about $0.70~ per round. Now its over $1.10 per round, or more.

7.62x51mm is the way to go for full sized cartridges. Max range is 1000m+ and penetration is excellent along with full personal armor defeating properties. If the bullet doesn't hit your plate, it's taking off your arm.

Cons,
Only a 4-5 cartridge internal magazine. Slow rate of fire. Poor ergonomics of some rifles where you have to disrupt your sight picture because of the bolt traveling back into your face. High recoil. Not adequate for tactical situations.
Pros,
Light weight, accurate, generally longer ranges due to thicker barrels and more sturdy designs. Better ammunition management and teaches better respect for every shot fired.

5.56x45mm NATO only has a maximum effect range of approximately 250 meters. Past 250 meters the bullet slows to around 2400fps which stabilizes the flight characteristics and causes the bullet to simply pierce through its target and not tumble, fragment or spall inside of target. Basically, after 250m it's a .22 magnum.

I'd rather have a shotgun with 00 buck than either in a SHTF scenario. In any urban combat situation, shotgun and pistol is far better. Accuracy at distance isn't worth anything in a city. If you are really up against a full crowd, it's time to run, because you will be out of ammo before you get them all.

Literally.
Auto is fine for close combat, which makes the OP's argument irrelevant, and actually pretty stupid.
At distance, bolt action rifles are the clear way to go, and ballistically the 7mm Magnum outperforms everything else in terms of power at the point of impact, especially at longer distances.

The problem with making a 1 mile shot, let alone a 2 mile shot, is the target has to remain fairly static for a rather long duration of time and how much kinetic energy is even in that bullet at 2 miles? Target shooting is all well and good when you can literally just lob the bullets 2 miles like an indirect fire weapon to gong a steel plate, but what effects would you have on an actual target at that range?
