You own one of 3 6.8 SPC ARs in the states. No one knows but we're all gonna laugh at your ammo cost
>>
>>29335825
As long as you already own a 556, you're good to go. 6.8 SPC should be entertaining. Have fun!

Neat, Aren't they closed now? Could be rare potentially.
>6.8
Pretty badass, honestly. Wish it was more popular.

I like the gold, I'd change the grip and handguard potentially. I assume it has a standard gas block front sight?
>>
>>29335825

6.8mm not 6.8SPCII? If so, you did good.

Ok I lied. It was blurry and really shitty. Fucking knock off Chinese GoPros.

Can you sell me on the 6.8 as a hunting cartridge over the heavier bonded .223 bullets?
>>
I have a friend that really wants a 6.8. He's never owned an AR and wants to get a full power rifle later as well.I'm trying to steer him towards a 5.56 for the AR but he just seems to be in love with the numbers and he's better he's been bitten with the govt paranoia bug pretty bad. I'm glad he's getting into guns but how do I groom him into not being a retarded paranoid sheepdawg "much 3%" stereotype

Isn't stag shut down by the government fir losing hundreds of full auto AR-15's in a boating accident?

>>29337398
You cant hunt with 223 in some states.
>>
>>29337506
they didnt have any full autos. IIRC they had something like 3 pallets full of unparkerized finished lowers without serials stamped on them, because the paper pusher who manned the metal stamping press was sick for a whole week, and they didnt stop production.
>>
>>29337398

If 6.8SPCII isn't good enough, go 6.8mm (barrel change, same ammo).

It's designed to be an AK replacement cartridge (generally, from my view). If an AK (7.62x39) would kill a man/deer, wouldn't then the 6.8 do so as well?

5.56 is illegal to hunt with. Well, most states I've been to, so you to use .308 or another 6.8 tier cartridge (6.5/6.5/270 etc).

Well it's usually more than twice the weight. At about 120 grains, I'm not familiar with the heavier bonded bullets you are referring too.

25 round mags are the same size as 30 round 5.56. Kick is very manageable, follow up shots on running pigs in less than half a second.

But shot placement is always key. I like the extra security that the extra weight offers.

Pic related is hind leg damage on a pig from 6.8spc.
>>
>>29337492

Tell him after two firefights he'll be black on ammo and all the mags he picks up from dead bodies will only fit some 14-16 rounds, on top of ammo he can't use...


....because the men he's going to kill won't be using AKs, they'll be NATO chambered weapons.
>>
sad that they used to make these in ct now i cant even buy one
>>
>>29337583
>>29337558

I've heard that in nearly ever state 5.56 is the minimum.

Atleast that's the case in LA, MS, TX, AL.
>>
>>29337626
most states state .30 cal or magnum / fullsize rifle loads as minimum
>>
>>29337617
I've pressed that a little as well as going over the various parts differences since he knows fuck all about ARs. I also brought up the idea of perhaps consolidating all the funds into one rifle instead of buying/building two then getting mags ammo and optics for both. Say PTR,FAL, or AR10 variant and gobs of mags or just a SCAR 17 so he never has to think about the gun again.

He did say "maybe I should just get an AK since it's so proven"

We have hogs in michigan? I thought those only lived in the south.

>>29337724
Damn that sucks. I come from MO and 5.56 is used for deer all around
>>
>>29337949

Expect the fuckers to be over the entire continent in a decade. No, this is not a good thing.

>>29337949
They are here. Several have been seen here in northern macomb county. And there have been sightings in the thumb and some farmers in capac have been having problems

NICE FUCKING CHOICE OP

I am all bout dat 6.8

On private property it is. Atleast in most states.

It managed to stop my belly growling...

It was around 115. Average for does in my area. I've never seen a does more than 150.

Unless it has spots it is good to go.
>>
>>29337626
In my state .243 is the minimum if I remember right.

Lots of states at .30 caliber minimum, and some have requirements on energy as well.

MN reporting, 5.56 is absolute minimum for whitetail durr here. DNR 'prefers' .243 as minimum and if a wardy finds you he might get grumpy at your babby killin 5.56 salt raful but he can't do shit about it.

I shot but never recovered some up by sand lake. Before you ask it was hotter than shit and I shot them with a .22 that I was carrying for woodchuck.

Maybe a southerner, shooting yooper bucks all my life and then getting some in Mississippi was a real shock.

>>29339523
Thats the thing, if he's going to be chasing ballistics above .50cpr and still wants a full power rifle then he may as well just get a full on battle rifle instead of getting a bolt gun, and a 6.8 plus twice as many mags, optics and even more ammo. This is a guy that has both a compact .40 and a compact .45 and previously had a Winchester 1400 with a 20" barrel before discovering it'll only ever be 2+1.

Trying to minimize mistakes. Hopefully I can just get him to go to 5.56 and a tikka or savage for practicality sake

>>29339673
The big .45s are arguably better from a projectile standpoint and capacity for one.

Also suppressors

Deer-like species get larger the further you move away from the equator.

African dikdik are the size of cats.
