A new niche round. I spoke with these guys at a gun show I attended recently. They seemed to be switched on, but not really my lane.
"What 300BLK provided to the AR-15 platform, 8.6BLK does for AR-10’s. The parent case being 6.5 Creedmoor, 8.6BLK is trimmed down and necked up for a .338 projectile."

So now we have 6.8 useless, 300 worthless, and now I have to come up with another name for yet another idiotic round?
Ok. I'll start working on a new designation.

Seems the 300 blk has some advantages in SBRs no? Perhaps this 6.8 would be a benefit to AR10 SBRs, assuming anyone runs such a thing.Originally Posted by markm

I'm leaning towards "Eight Six Limp Dick".

8.6 needless?

Don't confuse the 6.8 (what the mil seems very likely to adopt) and 8.6. Sounds like he does not approve of either however!

I like Kevin, but this cartridge is stupid. If you don’t see that on its face, then I won’t convince you, but I’ll bet money this cartridge is destined for the grave.

Its launching bullets double the weight of my current subsonic host (9mm PCC) and can’t accidentally blow up a 5.56 gun like .300AAC (which isn’t useless, just niche). It’ll fit down a .338 or .358 rifle can. Seems interesting, although I’m not particularly likely to buy one just yet. I’m not seeing why y’all hate it, other than resistance to change.

I'm going to invent the 11mm. Because mine goes up to 11.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

I gotta agree with Mark here. Stepping up to ar10 for subs makes little sense when their is the 338 spectre and Tromix socom cartridges for the ar15.
