6.8 kill things better

75-77gr 5.56 has about the same trajectory as 6.8

6.8 is very expensive unless you reload, in which case it's only really expensive

Check out this link if you want numbers to back up how 6.8 "kills things better."

It's a small world.  I think that the site I linked to is run by the same Zak Smith with the great line of "kills things better."  If so, nice site Zak.

'Course it is!

But I don't have any data in the FAQ to support that assertion.

Heavier bigger bullet going about the same speed, it's bound to kill things better.   Reports from the field support this, too.

Article about the 6.8 I believe there is a page missing though but the rest of it makes the point.
