Just got word from Ritch Johnson that my 22x6.8 upper is headed my way today! I have my lower built all waiting for it. Should be shooting it next wekend!!
Congratulations. Ritch says it runs like a sewing machine. H didn't specify if he meant a treadle or a Bernina 880. I suspect the later not the former.
My 22 is a 8 twist, 20" thread so I can run it suppressed.
I already have a DTI to fill the 6mm slot, but I may need a 25. I've never had anything in a quarter bore.

You might want to give some love to the 20, 25 or 6.5. That will balance the budget out. Well if $0.00 is balanced anyway.

I have 2-20 Practical BHW uppers presently and am considering trading one for the 6x6.8. Or selling it and ordering the 6mm.

Let me know when you want to sell it. I have a 6 x 6.8 upper and have been thinking about a 20 practical upper. I need to fill my small caliber niche since I got rid of my 17-204.
BOBTAILS give me some info on your weapon.
Barrel length, twist, Rifle Gas length? You shoot suppressed so do you use adjustable gas block or run it with whats on it?

What main bullet is planned with the 8 twist?
