[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 6.8mm SPC 12" barrels, bolts?

Posted: 8/24/2005 4:57:11 PM EDT

Anyone know a good supplier for 12" 6.8mm SPC barrels? One of my fall projects will be building a 6.8mm SPC upper for my SBR.

No, thank you, I know Grendel has superior external ballistics at long ranges. I'm really sure I want a 6.8mm barrel.

That's called trolling... Trolling by insecure 6.8 fans is the surest way to turn a thread into a 6.8SPC vs 6.5 Grendel thread.

To answer the first part of your post (you know, right before you started trolling), try these places first:

Sweet. Is that a Noveske flash hider on the end? How much does it help on the 12" 6.8?

Marty (.458 SOCOM fame) had them and can likely make you one.
Contact him through his web site.

Got a 10.5 laying here collecting dust .... PacNor CrMo parkerized bull barrel, meant as shop hog. Maybe 15 rounds through it ...

Anyone have data on 6.8mm from short barrels? Is 12" the 'optimal' length for the caliber?

THE NOVESKI KFH IS THE HEAT ON THE 12" 6.8 SPC WITH THE GAS PORT SIZE WE'RE USING. THIS IS THE BEST APPLICATION FOR IT YET, IMO.

12" AND 16" ARE WHAT THE A.M.U. AND 5TH GROUP CAME UP WITH IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ROUND.
