I have one - it was my first 6.8 back in late '05, biggest problem was that it was SAAMI 1:10. I've since reamed it to SPCII chamber. If you're looking at a new CMMG, they've since gone to SPCII 1:11 barrels so no worries there.

As to quality - it's always been a good shooter. Accurate enough for Highpower match use (100yd reduced course). Only issues I ever had were related to the chamber (popped primers). It would only handle mild loads if I wanted to reuse the brass. Bolt carrier key was properly staked, finish was good.
