I competed with my 6.8 since it was open to the long guns only and got beat by the Wolvie ( by only inches in my defense) and was 3rd out of 14. I also came in third in the 3gun shoot with a borrowed Glock and completely skipped a shotgun target for a 5 sec. deduction. The WLV ate up the steel at 100yds from prone and off hand, prone I was able to put rounds on a 3'' pink steel deemed the pink lady at will, wrapped it around the beam. We got some good vids and pics comin, hopefully I get us some links soon. Now to send the 8'' upper back home so maybe we can get back on track with the 10.5'' barrel.
    Hey that's me you're talking about lol. I've been a lucky guy here lately. First the 308 build parts and then the barrel this past weekend. I've been told to take the horseshoe out of my A$$. Yea the WLV stole the show that's for sure. But hey sometime all it takes is a few inches...

    Also the WLV did pretty good at the 300m mark as well. It was still ringing steel at that distance. Drop was not horrible, I'm no expert calculating it but it was just a little over 2 marks on my viper 6.5-20x44 dead hold bdc scope.

    So what are the ballistics like on this round? Does it shine with short barrels like 300 BLK or is 16" optimal?

    I've personally been getting 2800 fps average with a 90gd and 1680 powder with .7" grouping at 100yds... I have also been getting 2675 avg from a 100gr Accubond with MOA accuracy at 100 yds using the same powder... Ive got .4" grouping with 22.0gr of RE7 that still pushes a 90gr GD to well over 2600fps

    I know the numbers are on the heels of the 6.8 in the 16" barrel with less recoil. The 8.2" was naturally a little snappy with only a linier comp, but nature of the super short beast, nothing too bad though. I was getting about 2300fps out of 90gr. Gold dots in the 8.2" but as you can see in the pics the gold dot loved this speed at 100yds. The 8.2 was fun as hell but I think the 10.5 I have coming will be great for this round.
