Remington 6.8mm SPC Info

The 6.8mm Remington SPC (or 6.8x43mm) is a new rifle cartridge that was developed with collaboration from Remington Arms Co. and individual members of US SOCOM (Special Operations Command). It is midway between the 5.56x45mm NATO and 7.62x39mm in energy, bore diameter, and velocity. It is particularly adaptable to current 5.56 mm NATO firearms.

The 6.8 SPC has ballistics similar to the 1950's era .280 British, but it has a smaller case due to improved powders. The 6.8 mm SPC (Special Purpose Cartridge) has a muzzle velocity in the 2,400 feet per second (730 m/s) range from a 16 inch (406 mm) barrel using a 115-grain bullet.
