6.8mm AR 15
« on: December 23, 2011, 01:41:12 AM »
I am thinking about building a AR platform 6.8mm and was just wondering all your thoughts on this round, and application. It will be my first AR build. Any suggestions, comments, and tips welcomed. Looking to use it as a versitile varmit rifle.

I have a Rock River 6.8 car. Very accurate and a blast to shoot.

Only down fall is factory ammo is not cheap enough to plink with.

May want to read up on the 6.5 Grendel, you might change your mind.
