[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Best 6.8SPC setup?

Whats the best 6.8 setup for the money? The CMMG mid length looks good to me. Whats the difference in the two barrels it comes in?

Do people get tired of the 6.8 I see alot of used ones in the market place? I want one for deer hunting as I think it would be the BOMB!!!

Ko-toniks get the best reviews I can see. Supposedly they use the most optimal twist rate, cant remember if its 1/12 or 1/11 that is supposed to be better, Its whatever one they use.

1/11 twist, 4 groove rifling, improved chamber. All of this can be had from Ko-Tonics.

How do the barrels from Bushmaster or CMMG stack up?

18" from Ko-tonics. You only gain 50fps with the extra 2", not worth it IMHO. As far as quality and customer service, give them a call.

Chances are pretty good that you will actually speak to the owner.....try that with Bushmaster

The owner builds every order himself, I talked to him for about a 1/2 hour and was sold on their products.

No regrets

+ 10 for Ko-Tonics. Tim has built 2 uppers (18" & 20") just the way I askd him to. Dirt cheap for a true custom upper. Both of mine were each under 1k. Tim pays attention to detail as well.

That is what Art at Silverstate told me makes a 6.8 shoot the best
