You have an extensive working experience with 6mm wildcats between the 2 cases?
This one is pretty basic math.
We want to be able to shoot ogive lengths that can't be loaded into a 6.8 case without cutting down the case length significantly.
Grendel case is a neck-size operation and done without losing capacity.
Measure the magazine well limitations, then the bullets we want to be able to shoot.
Basic addition. The room isn't there for a 6.8 wildcat case to shoot 105s and 107s unless you cut the case down so far, reducing case capacity and velocity as a result.
6 PDK, 6mm Hagar, 6 DTI, 6x6.8, 6mm SPC, etc all don't have the ability to load 105s and 107s to mag length.
I just measured a 105gr Nosler RDF in a 6.8 case without moving the shoulder.
2.440" COL. AR15 magazine well is 2.395".
105gr Nosler RDF already drops into 6mm AR and 6mm AR Turbo.
This shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
