I think the point is to dump the 556 round for the more potent 30 cal round.

Sounds good to me! That is one of the reasons we went back to the .45! Those 9mm - SUCKED! I qualified the first two times with a 1911 (which I think was built in 1911), but the last three times with a 9mm. I wanted my antique .45 back!

How do you come to that conclusion when the article is about replacing the M-16 with the M-4 — both 5.56 caliber — and never says anything about a .30 cal in any context whatsoever?
