I've been following this thread also and it's very cool and fascinating. The whole concept of this build is exciting and I'm looking forward to seeing it all come together. Definitely gonna stay tuned for the next exciting episode.
It looks like the big win for the 6.8 is the fast twist barrel to stabilize the heavy long bullets.It's pretty much a 270wsm that's been pushed back .090 neck looks a smidge shorter on the 6.8. I like the 270wsm had a sister rifle to my 7wsm Browning A-bolt ii I prefer 7mm and it shot better over the 270wsm.
That's what 7mms for lol. Don't think I'll ever get one, Winchester has about the worst cartridge support out there.It looks like the big win for the 6.8 is the fast twist barrel to stabilize the heavy long bullets.

Need?
What's that again? I mean, I'm familiar with the term conceptually, but having difficulty applying it to this topic
Not as bad as REM!!!!That's what 7mms for lol. Don't think I'll ever get one, Winchester has about the worst cartridge support out there.
Beat me to it.......winchester new offerings just over promise and under deliver.....or well, they spins the story a little hard......Not as bad as REM!!!!
Now a Hornady backed 6.8 prc...........bet that would grow legs in a real hurry! I can see @Nature Boy launching 180 eols and tweaking seating depth because the group was still 5.5" at 1000........ (Not that I fault him one bit)Beat me to it.......winchester new offerings just over promise and under deliver.....or well, they spins the story a little hard......
Remington seemed to actively have it out for their cartridges........murdered a few in the crib even.
perhaps we can bully him into it for a later project.....Now a Hornady backed 6.8 prc...........bet that would grow legs in a real hurry! I can see @Nature Boy launching 180 eols and tweaking seating depth because the group was still 5.5" at 1000........ (Not that I fault him one bit)
I ordered a Manners (MCS-PRS1T) stock last Oct, they said 5/6 months, so maybe March/April/May probably.Manners stocks = 12 months
I don't understand why they keep reinventing cartridges. What is the advantage of a 300 PRC or 30 Nosler over a 30 RUM or a 30-378? I just don't get it.
