Ok, so I am sold on the 6.8 SPC, and I LOVE the ACOG scopes. I really like the bullet drop compensating reticles, but, obviously, they do not make one for the 6.8 SPC. I read that the best compromise is to get the one calibrated for the .223. I noticed the 6.8 has an almost identical trajectory to the 77-Gr 5.56 out to 600-yards. So...the question is...how effective will the bullet drop comepnsator be? The more thoughts the better! Thanks so much! |

The 6.8 shares the same trajecotry as the .308. Yes it's also similar to the 75 & 77gr 5.56 rounds - but I don't recall an ACOG calibrated for them (the 5.56 ACOGs are calibrated for M855 - 62gr). Bartholemu_Roberts had the big ACOG chart posted at the top of this forum (in a tacked thread). You might want to check there. |

Thanks for pointing me to the tacked thread. I really should have noticed that haha. So here is what I have determined... 115 gr 6.8 16"bbl flat-top should use a .308 BDC and will be pretty much on at all ranges out to 600yds? Please tell me if that is correct or incorrect. Thanks so much! BTW the ACOG is the TA01B |
It's a great round but I have three carbines and I shoot the 6.8 the least. No other reason  Link: 6.8SPC for sale |
