and its still around today as as a sniper weapon by the us military. The larger 7.62x51 is a more powerful cartridge and was more perfect in vietnam with all that dense foliage that deflected and deformed the smaller 5.56 ammo that the m16 used and still uses. I think the heavier cartridge would have made a difference if we continued using that in vietnam beyond 1967. WHAT SAY YOU???!!!!!
The good old days before we lost our first war???!!!
