Okay then.
But if that's the case then we should have just gone with 6.5x55 or some other cartridge that was already in existence and didn't need to be a special snowflake thing.
7.62 RFN was derived from a pre-existing cartridge (.308 Winchester)
That's why it makes sense (cheaper to start up on)
I'm not defending 7.62 RFN, but really, if we had to go redo it all again, a pre existing 6.5 cartridge would have been the best option.
It was a bit slow and still not really suited to full-auto fire. In the long run I'm not sure how much of an improvement it really would have been.

7mm-08 was better anyway.

Literally kill yourself faggot. You can jerk off over .280 British and 6.5 Swede and whatever other cartridges that never became widely accepted in the United States all fucking day.
But at the end of it all you don't own guns. If you care enough, go ahead and have a rifle custom built in whatever retard caliber it is that fuels your autism. But you don't have money for that. Maybe start handloading a commonly available caliber and push it to its limits before you spew retarded bullshit about """what could have been""". Deal with it nerd fucking faggot.

Why would we adopt a round that had the word British in it when we invented guns?
>>33474136
Naming a cartridge after the British would make it illegal

But, didn't the chinks do that?

>Tea-and-biscuits flavor 7.62x39
x51 was a retarded choice but there were better choices available (>>33474168) and 5.56 wound up being much better yet as an intermediate cartridge.
