My 6.8 SPC in NRA Sporting Rifle (pics)

[bribri]

I competed in South Dakota's state match last weekend with my Wilson Combat AR15 in 6.8spc. All the other competitors were shooting 5.56 AR's. I did OK not my best, I shot a 298 out of 320. The winner blew away the competition with a score of 316, which might be the club's new record.

That's a good looking rifle! I'm wondering what the specs of your load are(I'm also assuming that you handload)? You should fill us all in on the specs of that Wilson too. Great job on the match.

that is really cool and glad to hear you using it in competition. I use my 6.8mm's for hunting and they do very well.
