I hunt with my 6.8SPC . I've killed deer over three hundred yards with it.You need to visit 6.8 forums.com. You will find all kind of info there on the 6.8 SPC.The 6.8 SPC outperforms 7.62 x39 mm & 5.56 mm everytime.

Camoman, I have a DPMS in the 6.8 SPC with a twenty inch barrel. Its very accurate and I have taken five deer with it . From ranges of 80 yards to 275 yards. But I will say this the rifle is heavy . From the factory it weighs nine pounds . Mine use to weigh 11 pounds with a 3x 10 scope & loaded...

If I had to choose only one it would be a Marlin 1895 SS 45.70 caliber.

MCgunner, No typo . I was using the companion model which is = to a 22 LR. But the bullseye beats BP / substitutes everytime.I also shot at the plywood with the companion loaded with Black Powder and the bullet would not penetrate , it bounced off.No joke. But then when I loaded the companion...

I have the companion and super companion. Did some testing with black powder , bullse and 30 grn bullet with the companion today . Targets were at 6 ft. one scoop of Black powder @ 6 ft phone book :bullet penetrated 3 pages .Here is a pleasant surprise ,with Bullse 1.0 grns measured on powder...

Big Bore Dan, all pistol nipples are not the same. But it might work. After shooting I take my apart to clean it once I get home. I don't remove my grip frame or trigger/ hammer mechanisms. I took mine apart when I first received my dragoon before firing it to remove the oil and put anti seize...

Big Bore Dan , I use 45 grains of 777 powder in my dragoon. Shooting a hornady .457 round ball.I got my info from other posts on this site and other sites .I have a dragoon Whitneyville and I love shooting it.

I bought mine from Midway . I use 457 balls and 45 grns of powder very accurate.I love shooting it !

When the 6.8 SPC round was developed back in 2002. It would be an easy switch over from M4 5.56mm . Simply just change out the barrel , bolt and magazine .If the military did that , it would not only save lives but it would save alot of taxpayer 's money.Plus change the DI system to a gas...

I have a DPMS rifle in the 6.8 SPC . I've harvested five deer so far from ranges to 120 yds to 275 yds . I'm very impressed with the round. So is Special Ops community along with the FBI , Secret Sevice and the Marine Corps have done extensive testing with this round. The 6.8 SPC was developed...

I have one . I would use remington caps .Its a fun pistol for close range .Good luck!

I don't have a 6.5 grendel . But I do have a 6.5 swed , 6.5 carcano and 6.5- 06.After reviewing the ballistics of 6.5 grendel it can be compared to a 6.5 carcano round. In an AR platform the longer barrel for 6.5 grendel would add more weight to carry. Unless someone is shooting at paper...

My favorite is 6.8SPC . Good for hunting medium size game out to 300 yards.

Get an AR15 M4 in 6.8 SPC or 6.5 grendel.You can hunt deer out to 300 yards plus with both these rounds.Plus the rifle will be light weight and provide plenty of firepower.

Last week I bought a whitneyville dragoon from Midway. The day I received it , I took it apart and cleaned it. All I can say man, this pistol is tight . Especially putting it back together. I took it to the range and tried the dragoon at twenty five yards and I was impressed .Using .457 cal...

I have a 6.8 SPC in a DPMS Rifle 20 inch barrel. I use mine for hunting . You can reload or buy the loaded ammo for it.It has 80 percent the power of a 308 with 50 percent less recoil. I 've shot deer with it from 120 yds to 275 yds . It has the ballistics of a 257 roberts. I would say the round...

Real Mags , I'm retired Military and have been deployed overseas .I have used the 5.56 mm,and 7.62 x51 nato , browning 50 cal and a barrett 50 cal. I'm not impressed at all with 5.56 mm in its performance .By the way the 6.8 SPC was developed by a SGTMaj from 5th group SF and have been used in...

The H&K is a very good weapon. But I have nothing good to say about the 5.56 mm nato round . The military needs to reevaluated the 5.56 mm all together and use a better round like the 6.8 SPC or 6.5 Grendel. I prefer the 6.8 SPC a better combat round for the buck.

I use fed 209 primers in my Savage ML II. I would check the breach plug . After a 100 shots its a good idea to take 5/32 drill bit thru the breech plug to clean out the carbon build up. Just make sure you remove the vent plug first before you use the drill bit.

I have a 6.5-06 and its a great long range rifle for Deer & Antelope. My rifle was built from a 98 VZ mauser action and with a stainless douglas barrel .It has the ballistics of a 6 .5-284.But one difference you have to reload for this round . The brass can be made from 25-06 and 270 brass. I...
