The 6mm PPC would be an equally good choice, too, but I doubt that it's Soviet-designed case would endear it to the military brass in the U.S.

Can you provide ballistics data on the round. If it's a good round, it wouldn't surprise me if the brass refuse a good weapon just because it's Russian designed. (The Su-35 and newest MiG-29 varients are superior to current US warplanes.)

6mm -223 Remington also known as the 6x45mm first made in 1965. nothing more than a necked up 223.

6mm PPC Soviet designed? I thought the PPC was developed by Ferris Pindell and Dr Louis Palmisano of Palmisano Cartridge Co. As far as I know, it's the most accurate cartrige in the world. Most PPC shooters I know use very accurate micrometers to measure their groups.
