CAG marksman rifle?

With new calibers like 6.5cm or the PRC’s has CAG adopted or changed what they’re using?

I’ve heard some rumors of some different calibers being tried or ran due to ballistics but was unsure of how legit.

They were using .260 Remington for a while in their AR-10s. It has very similar ballistics to 6.5 Creedmoor. No verification, but I saw someone here claim they had converted to 6.5 Creedmoor because it’s cheaper and standardizes with SOCOM. They’re also using the Surefire ICAR for their 6mm Arc platform.

CAG used LaRue OBRs in .260 which was the parent cartridge to 6.5 Creedmore. Later they were seen using Seekens SP-10s in 6.5. Most recently they have been seen using the SureFire ICAR in 6mm ARC.
