In my mind its not just caliber though, the weapon has to be able to accurately engage human sized targets at 500 yards, which is why the AK-47 and SKS, while having a round that is above .30 cal in diameter, don't fall into the battle rifle class.

Heck, MOST people could not hit a human sized target with an AK or SKS past two hundred yards at all. In my experience, these guns drop off significantly after 100 yards.
