This was one of the more interesting threads. I like when you guys nerd out on a topics similar to this. It's all for fun, the military will not change from the 5.56 or 7.62x51. All the money is going to the Space Force. Actually, the military has already started to make the change from 7.62 as mentioned earlier in this thread. Moving to 6.5CM The future is Lasers.

scottfromdallas, exactly how far in the future are you thinking? I bet there will be plenty of time to switch to a different cartridge and get lots of use out of it long before the Laser weapon phases out smokeless powder...that is IF the laser weapon ever phases out smokeless powder.

I don't think it's that far off. It might already be happening on ships and vehicles. Lasers are cheaper to fire than missiles.
