[QUOTE="Maol, post: 2144516, member: 98340"] Yes either will work and a dead hog is a dead hog, no doubt there. The original point was the 6.8 has better terminal performance at most deer and hog hunting ranges. Even with factory ammo it is 100fps faster using the same length barrels and bullet weights. If you handload its 200fps faster. At 100 -200 fps faster the 6.8 has better terminal ballistics due to a larger dia bullet moving faster at distances were SD doesn't even matter. If you hand load for the 6.8 SPC ll, use a 6.8II/ARP chamber with even more free bore and the PRI mags to utilizing it, the 6.8 has better terminal ballistics to well past 300 yards with good bullets. But dead piggies is dead piggies [/QUOTE]
