Can someone give me a list of makers of high end 6.8 precision type uppers.

The members of 68forums.com were nice enough to make a chart showing the various makers. I used it to determine that the new Noveske was what I wanted.

in my opinion it's AR15performance

I just ordered my 2nd upper

one of the reasons I say that is Harrison has probably more time than anyone on testing and improving the cartridge, new chamber, twist rates, working with SSA on ammo, etc..
how many manufactures help you with load data?
great service and a great product at a reasonable price, sounds good to me

Wes @ MSTN has been building precision 6.8 uppers longer than most, and only uses premium parts.

Im curious why one of his uppers wasnt evaluated for that list

I have always thought that Ko tonics was a big name in the 6.8 world. I wonder why they didn't make the list. Do you know if there is a reason for that Rob?

Kotonics hasn't existed for quite a while. They are now Cardinal Armory (which is on the list).

I did alot of looking around before I settled on a 6.8 build, and also went with AR performance. Hope to get the upper in a few more weeks after months of waiting...Lots of orders since Nov.

I wasn't aware of that.

In my opinion, the new Noveske is the best 6.8 SPC made currently.

IF LMT made their barrel with a 1:11 then I'd say for a CL the LMT and SS the Noveske but LMT looks unwilling to go to 1:11 so I'd say all around, Noveske.

My experience with 3 of their barrels has been nothing short of fantastic.
