[QUOTE="chutinlead, post: 2377091, member: 112603"] It is exactly because you had to "build" it. "They" want it "built" for them, and that requires a SAAMI spec that calls out a fast twist barrel and suggested bullet weights. The problem I see with the 6.8Western is that Winchester and Browning haven't pushed it with all the other rifle and ammo manufacturers in the same way Hornady pushed the 6.5CM. It's only chambered in their rifles and that makes it less appealing. If Hornady would have made it and called it the 270 Creedmoor, it would have been a hit. [/QUOTE]
