The main reason why I would pick one of the 6.8 variants is more a choice of which one will be chambered properly.
Buy a Giraud and trimming is no longer an issue on anything! I agree totally that the Hagar is awesome, brass availability was the turn off for me and why I went 6.8 based.
If Hagar had brass, factory ammo and marketing it would catch on, just like the 6x6.8.
Maybe Hornady will invent them once the Crapmoore sales slow!
