It was called the 6.8 Browning right up to the time it was submitted to SAAMI. I always thought the 6.8 Western was going to be a necked down 7x57 case to 6.8. Maybe that was the original intention but apparently not now ? kwg

This says all you need to know about the 6.8 Western. There is NOTHING special about it whatsoever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSlIfWopj4U

I’m sill waiting to see what the 277 fury will do out of 22,24,26” tubes It pushes 140 at 2950 From 16”. 308 case length and 80,000 psi. There has to be reason why the military keeps choosing 27 cal. 6.8 SPC and now the fury. Obviously something has to be there. Either way. I’m going to keep my old faithful 270 win. Been working longer than I’ve been alive.
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Never before has .007” caused some so much grief!!! The same people bragging about 7 mm can’t stand .270 finally getting the attention by gunmakers and bullet makers that have long been lacking.
