Myself as well as many of your viewers wear alot of hat's, Iwent to the merch link
NO HATS!
I would buy a couple if you decide to add em to your store. Have a blessed day.
Your chronograph's broken and I'm buying a 68 Western
Great 👍video who tee who hey you should get the ruger 10/22 25 round magazine
I'm waiting for those new ammos called "normally-priced-06" and "6.8 Affordable"
Nah 6.8 Availability
That’s funny as hell haha
As warm as it is , that can contribute to the elevated velocities. Would love to see what it does in Winter.
Those 175 grain are shooting same speeds as real world 7prc 175 eldx.. seems Hornady is pumping their numbers a bit and the 6.8 western is much more on par with it than we originally thought?
Just picked up an X bolt Hells Canyon Speed in 6.8 Western and I am flat out impressed. Working on ballistics but the recoil with the brake very tame and in a full set up rifle under 8.5 lbs with the capabilities it has, it’s one hell of a hunting rifle.
Awesome
I've never been able to get interested in 6.5 creedmoor, but the 6.8 westerns are such a big step up in power and great flat shooting bullets that I am seriously impressed and want to buy one.
since you plan to take it out to a mile can you hit a watermelon at that distance? lol
Nice numbers! The 6.8 Western seems to combine the best qualities of the .308 WIN short action round and the high velocities of the .30-06 Springfield. I hope the 6.8 Western gets more popular among those who want bullet weights heavier than the .270 WIN but with the long range stability of the less powerful 6.5 Creedmoor.
I appreciate your effort in making these videos!
Thank you
Appreciate you watching!
Really wish there was factory 1 in 7.5 twist barrels for 270 winchester. Would love to shoot 165 accubond for elk
You can rebarrel it cheaper than you can buy a new rifle
@@joshwilcox8941 i am i have about 500 rounds left on barrel before i throw a 270 ai with fast twist
Browning x bolt long range
I have a 300 WSM, awesome, but, looking at this, the caliber with a 170, the velocity, I imagine the accuracy is outstanding, looks like a "hunting" winner.
Your candid-no edit way of doing things is all good! Thanks for another good informative video!
Appreciate you watching
Let's see WTW hit 500k subs this year guys !?!?
Hope so!
Wow 6.8 western broke your chronograph, sorry about that but dang it 6.8 western is showing up as Wicked my man dang it. Sweet video.
Chronograph still works. Was just wonky for a sec
Hey WTW, I just wanted you to know that I appreciate you and it is obvious after watching every video you have made that you are a good person. Thank you for being alive.
Really appreciate the kind words and appreciate you watching 🙏
@@WHOTEEWHO Hey WTW, if you havent left yet...can you do some videos on dove hunting and shotguns since we are so close to opening day?
@@homeschooldaddyjournal9839 more shotgun videos coming
Chronograph!!! Yeah boy that's 6.8 is moving. My 175g 7mm mag reloads only get 2875
Interesting. Im going to buy one.
This would make an excellent African plains game calibre. Thanks for sharing!
It's a sexy round, skinny long bullet with a massive charge of powder.
Really good averaging. I did the math on the first 2 and came up with 2882.5 fps.
You've done this a time or two. 🙂
6.8 Western is a Power House WhoTeeWho 💪
Jesus that round is pretty poison! Awesome vid as always, bit of recoil with that xpr
Has some boogie on it
Hey Adam
Can’t wait to see ya shoot it at a mile mate I’m sure that’s going to be an interesting test for the Western I believe the 6.8 is a very accurate round . Steve from Australia .
I see a trophy bear in the future for WTW, that 6.8 is a mean little round. Good shooting and gods speed to the WTW FAMILY AND FANS. 👍🇺🇸
It's a fancy 270
Hi WTW , your very lucky having your own gun range in your property. You can shoot any time you wish, I wish you all the best.
6.8 western it’s very good cartridge for hunting, even for bears 🐻,
All my boolot's drop after about 10ft. When I was in the military, I shot best when it was raining hard and the water was running down my face and glasses. I was the best and they told me I'd be the rain sniper. I think I paid more attention to my fundamentals more. Ruger Rich
I like watching you ,I have done thing in the past like ,only I didn't get paid for it , but in tgw past markmen loke your self have tried different twist with the 277. But they always go back to the 1in 10 for accuracy, I can't wait to see what you get with the 6.8 western
You cracked me up when you said you wanted to make sure you didn't put a hole in the chronograph -- I'm guessing somewhere out there is a chronograph with a hole in it. 😂
Adam, the 6.8 Western is .277 right? Just like the .270 Winchester. A performance test between the two would be great to see. Other factors are price and general availability.
The 6.8 western has better perforomance. The old 270 can’t usually handle anything more than 150gr, which is where the 6.8 shines with 165 and 175. And if you put a 130gr in the 6.8 itd still shoot quicker than the 270. The 6.8 is 7mm rem mag performance
@@devinb3397 The only differences between the old 270 and the 6.8 western is the twist rate, the 270 is 1 in 10 and the "new" 6.8 is 1 in 8 I believe to stabilize those long, heavy for caliber bullets. The 6.8 is the 270 wsm lengthened and of course that faster twist rate.
@@RMosher11 yes but the 6.8 can still push them along a lot quicker
Another rifle to replace the old .270 it to will take it's place in history with .284, .280 .6.5s and so on I think I will keep my .270 also mine don't need 170 grain hits like a 18 wheeler with 140 s I use 130 s just to save meat lol great video though you're videos are the best I think good info
@@kingfisher302 using less bullet eight doesn’t save meat. Sometimes using more actually will. It’s all about the bullet construction, a bonded or monolithic bullet damages way less meat than a varmint projectile. A regular 130gr soft point will do way more meat damage than a 150gr bonded projectile.
I'm Liken the 6.8, Apparently So does your Chronograph. JK, Might have been the muzzle blast.
Awesome round !!
I love it
Dadgum electronics. There’s a ghost in the machine.
Ya, like this 6.8 more and more, now how popular and how available ?
I'm a little disappointed in the winchester big game ammo🤔 I just ordered 200 rounds of it. I'll be ordering that same rifle soon. Right now still shooting 300winmag.
Always enjoy these chrono tests
Thats movin! 😃👍
@WHO_TEE_WHO Awesome velocities! Save that brass!!! Btw, how do the primers look? Thanks Brother!☆☆☆☆☆
Sweet looking weapon. I only wish they would’ve named it a 270 Western, I’m a big fan of the 270 caliber rifles. Can’t wait to see you Stretch it out to a mile.
But then you have too much confusion with the normal 270 Winchester. And right now metric nomenclature is the hot marketing name of a round.
And it’s also a marketing thing, right now the 6.5s and 6.8s and rounds that sound that way are what’s cool apparently
Shhh, it supposed to be a secret. No one will buy it if they know it's just a redesigned 270.
Johnathan I think maybe you need a hug. Ballistics are entirely different from any other 270. Projectiles completely different. Every party has a pooper 😆
@@WHOTEEWHO 6.8 is based off the 270wsm. The 270wsm was an attempt to put the 270 in a short action. The 6.8 Western is a redesign of the 270wsm with a fast twist rate, and the neck pushed pack to hold long heavy high bc bullets. In short an optimized 270, but still a 270 In all reality.
That’s why I don’t like those kinds of chronographs. I’d love to have one of those Lab Radar chronos (or whatever they’re called… the big orange square ones).
Round reminds me of the old .264 with that “pulled” bullet. Bet it shoots flat. 👍
Boy I'm glad I live in the sticks and only need a 30 30
Them were some slow bulllots!
Love the chrono tests! That 6.8 is amped up! I cranked on a 280 Rem years ago to max it up; it won't match that 6.8.
280 AI is a substantial gain over 280 rem
@@tylermallory2504 Yes sir, I considered rechambering mine several time. There were only 1500 of them made in Win Featherweight when I got it. Still might do it; the AI puts the bite fully in out there.
@@johnshields9110 I love mine but m I'm an avid hand loader and was before I made took AI jump. And 280 rem is still a way underrated cartridge these days and I have no idea why, I think its phenomenal!
@@tylermallory2504 Same here on reloading! I chose the 280 Rem as my light/medium rifle down from my Magnums. I found a 130 gr and 160 gr combo that shot perfectly, with a 275 & 350 yard zero with no scope fidling. Never got to my rifle elk hunt. My Win would hold 1 in the tube, 5 under in the internal mag. Didn't even need to carry extra shells. Used it as a Bean Field deer rifle; never needed more than 1 shot there.
@@johnshields9110 elk is primarily all I hunt and 9 times out of 10 my 280AI is on my shoulder! I have taken more than a dozen with that rifle and not once have I had one go more than 75 yards.
I gotta do my browning long range 26 inch barrel in 6.8 soon I’m building it for long distance hunting and I need to get the info done so I can send off for my leupold cds turret.
Anyone know if there are plans for a 6.8 western AR platform? I think that would be awesome!
Seems like 150 grain would be more appropriate from the looks of the cartridge. Looks like a 6.5 prc but in 6.8mm.
Your videos are like tutorials for me.
Only have iron sights SKS. Have to use my old eyes(that still work well)
Any suggestions? Thanks again. 👍☕😎
I was expecting to see the fourth shot put through the crono 😄
A little disappointing, but my guess is almost 3,000 fps
😂 I've done that same scope thing on my AR-15 you just quite didn't tighten them down enough I bought a torque screwdriver haven't had that problem since
I can't wait till the paper plates test.
I would like to see what it does to a watermelon at a hundred yards I know when you shoot melons and stuff from closes cool but wonder what kind of velocity and energy it has at a hundred yards for watermelon and a hundred yards you would show more accurate what the round does a distance one would think right thank you again for creating for creating the usable data for us to look at and give one a physical idea or what's going on thank you
I've got the same chrono , can't depend on it for multiple shots in a string.
Gosh darn chronograph. Was hoping to see the boggity on that bulaht
Hopefully it is just the battery or some simple thing on chronograph.
I suspect your faster velocity is due to you having a longer barrel then what was used to test with. They probably tested on a 22 inch or a 20 inch barrel. 🤔
I need a chrono. I wanna see what the 300blackout is doing out of a 16inch....
No, don’t think so; they usually test with minimum 24” and up
Hey I’m not joking at my rural king they are stacked with ammo I know you already went to rural king and they had nothing but if you’re by a rural king you might want to stop and see if they have any ammo
How’s the recoil on that xpr
How does the 6.8 western compare with the 6.8 sig is developing for the military? Is it a sideways development?
Same bore diameter and both equipped with a twist rate to stabilize heavier bullets than the original .270 Winchester. cartridge.
The sig round is a much smaller case, less powder capacity, but utilizes a hybrid case design featuring a steel head that can withstand 80,000 psi chamber pressure without issue while standard cartridges (like this 6.8 western) all have to stop around 65000 psi as the brass in the cartridge head will start to “flow” at pressures much higher than this.
The 6.8 western is still a significantly more powerful cartridge.
Try also in comparison the 270 short mag and you will be shocked and amazed and even might be pleased on the comparison on everything across the board to your to your to your move to your video on what you give me out right now in comparison try it
Nice rifle. Great performance. But for all intents and purposes, Its a 7mm magnum. Basically same numbers. Slightly better BC.
Bullet drop and longer distances and energy us where it shines
Good vids even though I’m not hip on 6.8 Western
Did the chrono possibly switch to metric? Those numbers might make sense in meters per second, didnt do any math myself tho
Still too low for that. For a real ballpark figure multiply the metres per second by 3 to get close enough to the FPS to know this isn't a metric issue. Where he got 228 on the chronograph that means it should be around 690 feet per second, not nearly enough for it to have been in metres per second. The true conversion on 228 m/s is 748 FPS so it's only a rough guide to a ballpark figure.
It's a good point you raised though, very expensive spacecraft and rockets and probably lots of other things have been destroyed because of calculation errors caused by mixing the two units!
I finally got to watch it
Hey Arthur
Would love to see 6.5 PRC. I can help with ammo
I was in the process of getting one but didn't when the ammo went crazy high
Match ammo in this caliber? Interesting! How much was that?
Has your ProChrono been reliable. I bought one today
Always worked pretty good
@@WHOTEEWHO Thanks
Was waiting to see the bullet hole in the chronograph, lol
In the house
What's the difference between 270 WSM and these bullets? If Browning and Winchester weren't owned by the same company I would say patent and copyright law problems
The 6.8 western case is slightly shorter allowing you to load long heavy bullets and still be a short action. Also has a faster twist to stabilize the heavy bullets.
@@Dfleuryoutdoors look into WSM line of bullets..Winchester Short Magnum..300...7 mm ...270...6 mm......u don't think you are familiar with the true and first short magnums
Officialy worn out the crono graph
What in the devil LOL
😆😆😆
It looks like your crono was reading in meters.
Maybe your chrono somehow got set to meters?
No, still way to slow.
Get the chronograph figured out?
Thank you could get a Pronghorn Antelope at 600+ yards with you 6.8?
I could, but I don't have any antelope tags this year. All the states with antelope you gotta get drawn
If you can only get within 600 yards of an antelope you're doing something wrong. I shoot them with 100 grain 243, usually about 200 yards.
Why hollow points for target shooting? Always would have guessed that a speer point would fly better.
Nope. If you look at all match ammo it is all that way
@@WHOTEEWHO maybe after a certain speed it just doesn't matter anymore.
drats missed live =(
Let's see what the 6.8 Western does to clay blocks at 1000 yards!
Good idea
Hate the Chrono problem but it looks like they all should be close to 2900 out of 22 to 24 inch barrel with good twist rate. Military is looking into using a 6.8 × 51mm round. Like 6.8 bc info better than 6.5mm. Thanks
Pleaseeeeee bring more attention to 22 Creedmoor
Never heard of it
@@WHOTEEWHO only 219 inches of drop at 1000 yards with a 95gr .224 projectile. 3200fps muzzle velocity. One of the flattest shooting rounds ever. It's a shame it isn't as popular as 6.5 creed
WTW Rules!
Heyo
👍
Who makes reloading dies for the 6.8 Western.
I dunno
Made for a good video but in all reality you've decided in a previous video that the match bullets shoot the best an will be used to stretch out to 1000yrds++ so why waste them hunting bullets since you don't really need the data for those. Just saying. On a side note. Keep it up an cheers 🎯
For everyone else to have the data. For long range hunting, etc
2 is not enough to get a realistic average. If I need a solid number i shoot 5.
Plenty good enough to get close. Feel free to send us in ammo for videos 😝
@@WHOTEEWHO it sucks to have to shoot more to get the numbers. but having reloaded for along while and tested a lot of rounds, 4 is my bare minimum, 5 is preferred, and 7 is ideal if checking velocity to get a good number. its not fun to load up that many test rounds on a balance bean scale. and its certainly not fun to shoot 5 out of a box of 20. but it will more accurately tell you how fast your ammo is going. and more importantly, how consistent the ammo is shot to shot. your SD and ES. shooting long range your SD and ES are king.
6.8 western vs 6.5 PRC, who's with me !!!
Yes please 🇦🇺🤙🤙
Spendy rifle to shoot. 😆. Hows the recoil?
Battery got weak ???
Could be
The speeds may be slower because of the hot barrel
Go get WTW!!!!☯️🎩♠️
Your chronic is broke bud the 165 grain bullet should have read fastest of the group. Anyway I think you need a new chronograph but good video anyway
Giver all the zoo it’s you can!
Could someone provide the COL of each of the bullets. Thank you.
Too easy
Looked a little overcast
That can affect chronograph readings
Seems like the hotter the barrel got it started tightening up on those bullets. Hmmm. I wonder if you tried it cold get higher numbers. I was say that beast round was too close to the chrono. Lol. With how you get info on bullets. You need a lab radar. Offffffffhhh there 800$ seems like you need a sponsor........
Chrono's don't work on cloudy days. Even if the sun goes behind clouds it wont work correctly.
Hope the chrono isn't dead....
