[LA_357SIG]

Hi all. Just another 6.8SPC shooter from ARFCOM. I chose the 6.8SPC because the 5.56mm was not too appealing to me after I got out of the Army.

Plus I like the confused responses I get when people ask me what 5.56/.223 load I am shooting that makes water jugs explode or when reloaders try to figure out what kind of brass they are stealing from me as I shoot.

Ha, I love it when people pick up the brass after I shoot and they expect to have scored some 223 brass... then they toss it in wonderment.

Im glad I am not the only one to see this.

Welcome LA_357SIG. What part of TN are you in? Brass hounds aren't near as aggressive here in the NW corner of the state. Of course, they don't have much opportunity as I don't usually leave it on the ground long.

It is fun to see the confusion spread at the local HP matches when someone goes to score my target and sees the .270 cal holes.
Goes something like:
"Wait a minute, aren't you shooting an AR?"
Yep
"Well where'd these big holes come from? Is it a .308?"
Nope
"What the $%#, are your bullets tumbling or something?"
Yeah, that must be it...

More and more are starting to catch on now, but still catch some off guard.
