The Hornady Custom 6.8mm SPC 120 gr SST (Hornady part no. 8347) is a 20-round box of 6.8mm SPC rifle ammunition loaded with a 120-grain SST bullet. Hornady lists 2460 fps and 1612 ft-lb at the muzzle from a 16-inch test barrel, with 2051 fps and 1121 ft-lb still on the table at 200 yards. It belongs to the Hornady Custom rifle line, which Hornady describes as hunting ammunition loaded in a wide variety of hunting calibers. Hornady says every round is hand inspected before packaging, and that it builds Custom ammunition to give shooters and hunters the advantage of handloaded accuracy in a factory load. A box of 20 gives you enough to confirm the load in your own 6.8mm SPC rifle.
