[QUOTE="Leaf Litter, post: 2866999, member: 124584"] 6.8 western is great for your purpose, but the Winchester brass could be better. 6.5 or 7 SAUM brass can be fire formed into 6.8 Western. I get 2965 FPS with Retumbo and 170 EOL and very good accuracy in my 6.8. The 270 Sherman short is also another great existing option. If you're wildcatting, then I'd wait and neck down 7 PRC for the highest powder volume. 6.5 PRC or 7 SAUM would be fine also. Kind of up to you on what case capacity you want to go with [/QUOTE]
