HEADS UP, NEW Noveske 6.8 SPC barrels (1:12 twist) in stock tonight

[Cold]

Got word that some 16" 1:12 twist 6.8 SPC Barrels from Noveske will be going up for sale tonight or tomorrow morning.

These are their NEW Spec barrels and are going to be shooters without question.

Just a heads up for the guys who have been looking for them

there up now, 9 left.

Any chance they went with the SPC II chamber? Couple the SPCII with a 1:11 twist, and I'd be all over it.

Noveske has their own designation for their chambers, but basically it is the Spec II.

SPCII chamber, 1:12 twist. These are just about the perfect 6.8 barrels in terms of specs, and you can't really go wrong with a Noveske's quality and accuracy.

Personally, I'm waiting for the 18" and 12.5" barrels to go on sale so I can upgrade these guys:

This is news to me on the SPCII chamber variants.
I had always heard that the Noveske 6.8 chambers were NOT SPCII at all.
There was a chart made up by some guys who tested literally every 6.8 upper on the market, and they showed Noveske 6.8 chambers to NOT be SPCII at all, IIRC...

Paul,

This is taken directly from Noveske's web site:

"The 16.1" Recon 6.8mm Stainless Barrel

--1 in 12" twist polygonal rifling
--6.8mm SPC MOD 1 Chamber (.100 Freebore) "


As you can see, this MOD 1 chamber is their own designation, but the 0.100 Freebore is exactly the same dimensions as the Spec II.

The chart you refer to was made up before Noveske started to produce this particular barrel.

There is a new, updated chart that shows the changes made by Noveske and they do show that it is the Spec II.

Sweet,
Didn't know that guys. Now all we need is an N4 Light Series CHF'd, CL'd, 6.8 bbl from Noveske, and we'll finally have something...

Exactly. They have Noveske old and Noveske new.
