Is the Sig 6.8 Rifle, the new Army rifle?

[milkman]

There are more cons than pros in discussion, testing, and experience in the 6.8 cartridge and rifle.
The Army is ready to get rid of the 5.56,and the M-16, M-4 platform.
There is big money involved in this contract.

No idea, there have been multiple issues with the too techy rifle.

I like the caliber greatly but not sure if they needed that kind of psi with the steel/brass casing.

Too much shit in the pot for my liking.
