I feel like if the western world would have adopted another generation of bolt action main battle rifle the result would have been something like the MVP Patrol or Scout 762.

I've shyed away due to the 1 in 9 twist rate, figured it would be marginal on the heavy bullits. Might give it another look though. The 7.62 gun looks pretty promising but I'm a big 700 fan.
Buddy of mine picked up a 5.56 for his boys, that's his excuse anyway, and loves it. I don't think he's run anything heavier than 62gn ammo yet.

I have a 5.56 patrol model and love it. However it could "feel" a little better. Seems like the stock is sub-par with the rest of the rifle.
Might be a subject for another thread but I've known several 1 in 9s to shoot up to 75 gr 224s just fine...not to say there isnt reasoning behind faster twist but I think a lot of it is over hyped.
