223/5.56
6.5 Grendel
6.8 SPC
350 Legend
50 Beowooof

All tend to Max out the Lightweight AR15 Platform in a specific niche area.

For engine blocks & Bullwinkle I'd take the Beowooof
For all-round/medium game/hogs I'd take the Grendel w/ a 123gr'r
. . . save where straightwall is req'd, then the Legend w/ 180gr

If I'm going to war -- on balance -- I'd still take the currently-improved 5.56

(postscript: Commercial Legend feeds fine out of a 5.56 Magazine)
