Nissa from Tactical Ammunition just emailed my tracking number for my upper receiver.
Should be here by Wednesday.
I am needless to say excited.
On a side note what is the cheapest reliable mag for feeding 6x6.8.
I will be needing one of those sometime soon.

They are 100%, they are cheap and they load, at least on mine, to 2.300. J&G Gun Ranch has them or you can go direct to ASC. Also when you get a 243 LBC down the road you can use 'em for that!!

my tracking number suggests I'll have mine on Monday (i win  ) On the side note; I am new to non 5.56 in my A/R. I have mags for my 6.8. I thought part of the upside for this round was that normal mags would work. Did I miss something??? |

Hi Scokie Your 6.8 mags should work just fine, if they work OK in your 6.8.  What Greg said is, that if you have to buy mags, get the 6.5, because they can also be used on so many other calibers that you may want to get in the future. I think that I also saw a post previously, where R. Johnson (Richie) said to get 6.5 mags for the same reason, but I could not find where I saw that post, so I ordered 6.8 mags, to be sure that I had something that would work when my 6x6.8 upper arrives. I will be ordering 6.5 in the future, because I am also looking hard at the 243 LBC and I don't have any plans to get a 6.8 |

I just checked my e-mail, Nissa sent me two tracking numbers for 6x6.8. UPS shows Wednesday delivery with 2 packages for each tracking number (upper + ammo ?) |

I messed up with the calender when I said Monday (must've been wishful thinking. It arrived at the office today. Can't get out until Saturday anyway so I only lost one evening of tinkering with which scope to mount etc.
Out of the box it looks awesome. Can't mess with it much at the office so I'll try and post a picture once I have it on a lower with scope.
Fired up to get it out in the field Saturday. If I can get zeroed quickly I am calling in Coyotes Sat evening.
