You know, we use to carry them several years ago.  It took forever to move them, so we discontinued them.  We specialize in 5.56, so we put our main focus on that caliber.  Maybe one day we will add it back.  There are several conversion type uppers we would like to add, but we have to get a little down time to do it.  We are really focusing on trying to get the .308s released.

Thanks for the inquiry!

I believe they took so long to sell because they were the wrong chamber/twist. Did you take that into account? Noone wants a 6.8 without the correct chamber/twist for maximum bullet performance. I believe Stag and DPMS also had the same results at first with their poor chamber/twist choice.

Also, unless NATO picks up the 6.8, I believe it'll go down as a wildcat caliber you can't buy at most ammo stores. I was HUGE into it but my interest has deflated because of vendor's poor choices for deployment.

I have done business with Del-Ton Inc and would consider a 6.8 Upper if one is offered.  Make mine an 18" rifle with a low gas block and make sure the chamber is spec'd SPC II.
