What does 6.8 mean in POLICE

The Remington Special Purpose Cartridge (RSP) is a line of ammunition developed by Remington specifically for hunting, competition, and recreational shooting. It features a unique combination of premium propellant, superior components, and innovative designs to provide shooters with exceptional accuracy and performance.

Currently, the RSP line includes six calibers – .223 Remington, .30-06 Springfield, .308 Winchester, 6.5x55mm Swedish Mauser, 7.62x51mm NATO (7.62mm NATO), and 6.8 mm Remington Special Purpose Cartridge (6.8 SPC).

The 6.8 mm SPC offers shooters several advantages over other traditional cartridges in the same caliber range including improved external ballistics and terminal performance at long distances due to its relatively high velocity and low recoil profile compared to other common cartridges such as .270 Winchester or .30-06 Springfield. This makes it a great choice for medium-sized game hunting or competitive shooting.

AR-15 style rifles are generally considered to be the best platform for use with 6.8 SPC ammunition due to their light weight and accurate controls making them ideal for precision shooting out to moderate distances for both hunting and competition purposes.

Yes, it is important to clean firearms after every range session or hunt when using 6.8 SPC ammunition as prolonged use can lead to build up of carbon deposits on internal components which can affect the accuracy of shots if not removed properly on a regular basis using recommended cleaning supplies and techniques outlined in your rifle's manual or general cleaning guidebooks available online from various sources such as gunsmiths or firearms enthusiasts groups/forums/websites etc..

Yes, reloading is highly possible with this cartridge thanks to its wide availability of components like projectiles, brass cases, primers and propellants allowing users to customize their rounds depending on purpose or preference without the need of specialized equipment or extensive training in order to do so safely and properly according to their own specific needs or situation. Reloading can also provide significant cost savings over factory loads due depending on amount of reloaded rounds produced per batch/session etc..

In most cases yes however some lower capacity magazines may require an additional magazine spring replacement in order ensure proper feeding particularly those designed exclusively for 556x45mm NATO rounds since they are slightly shorter than standard length rounds such as the ones used in Remington’s 6.8mm SPC series making it difficult for them fit into these types of magazines without modification or addition of extra spring power which could cause failure-to-feed issues if not done correctly so if you intend on using lower capacity mags it would be wise make sure they are suitable for your purpose before attempting any sort modification thereafter.

Yes there are jacketed projectile options available from manufacturers such as Hornady who produce full metal jackets (FMJ) bullets made from copper alloy that feature hollow-points designed for deeper penetration through hard targets while still expanding upon impact providing better stopping power compared against other non-jacketed options like full metal jackets (FMJ) bullets that traditionally have poor expansion properties thus reducing their effectiveness at longer ranges otherwise ideal scenarios.

Depending on bullet type chosen expect at least 2200 feet per second velocity from muzzle out to 500 yards effective range with minimal drop off consistent hitting power even at longer distances allowing more accuracy control even at further distances than traditional cartridges but due variations between individual firearms environmental factors velocity retention may vary case by case.
