American Eagle, Federal Ammunition’s budget line of ammo, is now offering a 6.8 SPC round.  The new ammo will use a 115 grain full metal jacket bullet.  The published muzzle velocity is 2675 fps.

According to the company, the new load is “optimized for use in [modern sporting rifles].”  The cartridges use a brass, reloadable case.

Federal states the new American Eagle 6.8 load is “priced for volume shooting.”  It carries an MSRP of $19.99 for a box of 20.  200 round cases will also be available.  The only problem for shooters might be in finding any of this ammunition.
