In this video, I conduct a detailed investigation into what sort of muzzle velocities the 6.8 Western is actually delivering afield with 4 popular factory loads: Winchester's Expedition Big Game Long Range load with a 165gr AccuBond Long Range, Browning's Long Range Pro load with a 175gr Sierra Tipped Game King, Winchester's Ballistic Silvertip load with a 170gr Ballistic Silvertip, and Winchester's Copper Impact load with a 162gr Copper Impact bullet.

I used a Browning X-Bolt Long Range Hunter rifle with a 26" barrel for this test.

As you'll learn, I discovered a couple of pleasant surprises about 6.8 Western ammo muzzle velocities.
