When installing a 6.8 barrel on an upper, are the barrel nut, delta ring, snap ring and weld spring going to be the same as the parts used with a 5.56 barrel?
Thanks

All the same but the barrel, bolt and magazine. Last time I said that someone jumped on me about the muzzle device but if you cram a 5.56 muzzle device on a 6.8 rifle you've got other problems.

Yes, as nightdh said.
The only things different are the barrel, the bolt and magazine. Everything else is the same.
Damn! beat by 16 seconds! Fwiw, 6.8 barrels are threaded for .308 muzzle devices, that's why you can't cranks a 5.56 one on.
