This was done during the development of the 6.8. The 7mm proved to have better terminal ballistics but a mediocre trajectory. The 6.8 was chosen as a compromise between terminal performance and trajectory. I personally like the 7X47(6) idea, it's just that there is no intermediate sized platform on the market. And if I'm going with a .308 sized action I may as well get a .308, 7mm-08, or 6.5Creedmore. LWRC was showing off a proprietary lower designed to take Polymer 6.8 mags, that lower or somethin similar may be the answer if we can get an extra .18-.22" in overall length in the mag.
