    For here in NW Fla with it's small'ish deer but big'ish hogs I prefer my 6.8SPCII. I have a 10.5" AR pistol and a 18" AR. I also have a Ruger Mini-14 chambered in 6.8SPC.
    This chambering is pretty much between a 223/5.56 and a 308Win. Shooting a .277" bullet of between 85grs and (normally) 120grs it has proven to me time and time again to be a great killer at <300yds.
    I killed this 266lb hog with my 10.5" 6.8 with a thermal sight. One shot. The hog went about 30yds with heart and both lungs in shreads. Hornady 120gr SST. ---- SAWMAN
