Weight is still a big concern. My HK91 with bipod and scope, weighs in at close to 12lbs. The Ruger SR762 with bipod weighs in at just under 9lbs. carry around 8 x 20 rd magazines, and I am sure the WWII GI and his Garand carried just as much. I really believe that at group with a 50-50 mix of 5.56mm and .308x51 is the best armed for SHTF. You have the best of both worlds. And 7.62x39 is not a bad round either for close in fighting. These 3 rounds are really all I would consider for SHTF.
