Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - 6.8 COAL Question
Posted: 7/21/2008 4:50:47 PM EDT
I cross listed this in reloading, but I know there are a bunch of 6.8 junkies in here so I figured I might get some assistance

So I just loaded my first few cases of 6.8SPC, only to find that somehow I screwed up and they are a little shorter then the suggested COAL - most are 2.24" or SLIGHTLY longer.  My shortie load's are

110g VMAX CCI#400 24.4g H322
110g VMAX CCI#400 24.8g H322
110g VMAX CCI#400 25g H322

Can someone tell me if these are safe to shoot in my weapon (10.5" 1:10 SSA II barrel)?

You're fine.  COAL is usually 2.26 but it can be a bit less, and your powder charges are on the light side even for the tighter SAMMI chamber.
