I got out and shot the 6x6.8 AR I got from pd721el he was great to deal with (is the a good guy list?) It is a 20" 10 twist barrel Not finding much in the way of reloading data I started with 4 bullets 55gr Nosler BT,55gr Blitzking and 60gr Sierra HP.
All loaded with 8208 and CCI 450 primers. Cold and windy the mirage was running. Anyway here's what it did at 100 yds.

I was fire forming new brass. Dropped some out of the groups.
I have shot 65gr Vmax too they shoot great but I didn't take any pictures of them. Any suggestions ?

This is the load that I've been told to start with once all my parts get here.
 
The top speed Ive been able to get with the 65g vmax has been 3411 fps with 27g h4198, 3403 fps with 31g x8208, 3348 fps w/31g h335 that's w/a 22" bbl though.

***OOPs meant to have this on your pother post***.
