This article pretty much mirrors my thoughts, though it leaves out the surprisingly good performance of 6.5g from a 12.5" barrel.

I bought a 6.8 LWRC a few years ago. We did a dead chicken target review with 5.6, 7.62X39 and the 6.8. Bought a bunch of frozen chickens and shot the hell out them. The farmer complained about buzzards a while later but that's a different story. The 6.8 did the best job on the chickens. Literially blew them apart. I wish that I had been into Utube at the time but we were just having fun. Didn't have a 6.5 but would love to do it again. I just bought a ballistic torso mold and the stuff so if someone wants to come down and bring a 6.5 AR we can try it out. PM me. I live on the eastern shore and we shoot at a private range which will allow us to do anything.
Wait until the military makes a decision, then I will pick which ever one the military picks, because ammo will be cheapest.
