Just wondering if anyone else out there was hunting with the 6.8 SPC. I took a nice 8 pt whitetail with it this year..at 75 yds..110 gr TSX out of a 15" TC Contender. Did a great job. 2" exit..tore up the insides.

Josh, congratulations and welcome to the forum. I have not as yet used the 6.8, but am considering one. Appreciate the input relative to the effectivness.

Good Job, i would imagine that the 6.8spc would make a great deer round out to 200 plus yards in a rifle, and thats farther than most of us have to shoot. How far do you feel comfortable shooting with the pistol?

A friend of mine took an antelope with the 6.8 SPC this season. Animal was taken at about 250 yds, after a memorable stalk head on towards the antelope in full view all the time.
