I have a 12" Bison BSP barrel (cut down from 16" instead of buying their 11.5" barrel). Use a YHM ULT on it, but not enough rounds down the pipe to do any serious erosion. I've also shot a Saker 762 and some F1 cans on it.

6.8 was designed for shorter barrels than 5.56, I don't see why you'd have to limit yourself. IMO a 10.5" 6.8 would be fine depending on the manufacturer's ratings for the silencer.

I use a 10.5" 6.8 with a Gemtech Quicksand suppressor. Per Gemtech, that suppressor is rated fine for a 10.5" 6.8. No problems so far, and a few hogs killed with it.
Note: I did have some carbon build up in the first chamber from having fired 1000's of subsonic 300BLK rounds with M160 frangible bullets. The higher pressure of the 6.8 (compared to my low pressure Blackout rounds) blasted the build up out of the expansion chamber and off the first baffle. No noticeable erosion seen from using the 6.8. |

Just get a can that's warrantied for the 6.8 in the barrel length your gonna use. Plus the use of a break will help as a sacrificial blast baffle. One can you can't use is a Omega since Silencerco considers the 6.8 & 6.5 Grendel like a 308.

I have a 12.5" 6.8 and a Crux Ark 30 in jail that 6.8 will be solely shit through it. It's rated full auto down to a 7.5" barrel win their brake attachment.

I always ask. Or use the 308 length if it's at my barrel Length of 12.5". That's just me I guess |

M42K - 7,000+ rounds on a 10.5" factory LWRC 6.8 SBR with a flash hider mount. I did run about 200 rounds through it with a brake mount and couldn't stand the noise.
