6.8 SPC AR-15 for Deer.

O4L · Feb 19, 2017

Looks like I will have a place to hunt this year. I want to hunt with an AR. Was thinking this might work for $499.99.

What do you guys think of this idea?

I bet it will work just fine. Good price too!

6.8 will work great on deer.

I loaded some 270Win down to almost 6.8 levels with 110 Barnes TSX's for a recoil sensitive shooter. Dead deer couldn't tell the difference..

make sure it has the SPC II chamber. you can load the SPC II chamber up to some scary velocities. most folks use the 120 grain SST for deer at another board where i post and get solid 6.8 info. some are using the Speer 90 gr gold dot bullet, or the 100-110 accubond. i currently have six 6.8 spc II. remember the 6.8 round was developed for 16" barrel

I shoot the 6.8 through both my AR and my Contender. Great all-around caliber.

My son smoked this one with a 6.8 suppressed rifle at 150 yards. Use a good bullet and you'll have no issues.

My daughter killed a good one this year with an AR, we just used cheap Hornady i believe 55 grain.. PUT IT IN THE BOILER ROOM and they go down.

So, just out of curiosity, why did yall pick the 6.8? The ballistics on paper just are not very impressive. I realize the deer do not read the ballistics chart, I was just curious as to what sold yall on it.

The ballistics on the 6.8 are better than 5.56 for medium sized game at short to intermediate ranges, are they not? :anyone:
