Mobuck, I can see it. The 6.8 will yield a 300 yard-capable deer rifle with much less recoil than other, more capable chamberings, while offering good support for bullet selection and consuming less powder for reloading considerations.

Has more application than that SSK rifle on the threads a month ago... 2400 grain bullet, 240 grains of powder, somewhere north of 120 ft pounds of recoil energy...
