I'm assuming this is the new military round everyone is talking about.

I'm confused. I can't find any info on this such as parent case, (CZech?) ballistics, or reloading data. I might be interested. Is this a 270 caliber job? Ballistics anywhere near the 276 Pederson or 6mm SAW?

Neat. Bigger bullets are better bullets.

Have you any reloading data on the 6.8mm SPC for projectile smaller then the 110 gr? I am a new member as of 4/11/08.
