[QUOTE="bullfrog, post: 986450, member: 26027"] I built a 6.8 with 18" barrel for one of my boys and it has worked wonderfully for deer hunting. He has shot a few at 150 yards and under and the performance has been better than expected for the size of the round. I have shot one doe at 320 yards and the bullet still opened up very well. I personally wouldn't want to try anything over 400 with this round. The 308 will make a better long range gun but the AR15 platform is so much handier it is worth it to me. I expect to use the 6.8 on my next hog hunt. I'm using the 110 v-max Hornady factory load. [/QUOTE]
