Do any of you black rifle fans here have any experience with the new 6.8mm SPC?
I've been saving up for a new RRA and I just learned about this cartridge the other day. I like the idea of this more powerful but less than a full .308 intermediate round.
I'm apprehensive about adopting it as my only rifle in the even ammo is hard to find, overly expensive, or if the military logistics crew gets it axed form service supply to avoid ammo logistics problems.
How much does the ammo run for this? (Assume I would buy 1000 rounds at a time.)
What are your opinions of the cartridge? I know how I want the rifle set up, I just don't know if going with the 6.8 is a safe bet.
Oh, and if IL passes this stinking ban then only the guns / mags I have procured before the governor signs it will be legal so I have to act quick with this purchase and this one might be my only one. That fact alone might put a 5.56 in the safe.
