The 6.5 Creedmoor is too large for the AR15 platform. It would require an AR10 platform.

Yep. The Remington 6.8x43 was the cartridge that DOD was flirting with a few years ago, apparently the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit and Special Ops Command had some input during its development. I wonder why it has been nudged out of the spotlight? It seems like a good compromise between the 5.56 and the 6.5 Creedmore.
