I ended up with some 90 grain 6mm TGK bullets and thought about trying them in my 6x6.8. Has anyone tried them in the 6x6.8? Load data? Accuracy? Game performance, etc?

Thanks

Not in 6x6.8 but They shot very well in my tac6 and performed well in ballistics gel. Never shot any animals with them.

Might get you some start points. Post up what you get for posterity.

Thanks.

Been doing some measurements. Maximum OAL in my ASC mags is 2.295”. There maybe a problem with too much of the bullet seated inside of the case, past the bullet’s ogive. Not sure if that would be an issue or not.

Not sure what you use to figure max OAL to the lands. Make sure your "mag length round" doesn't put you "in a jam." (pun intended)

Im using the Stoney Point OAL gauge with the 6x6.8 modified case. No problem jamming. It contacts them at 2.395”. I’ll have a min jump at least .100”
