CA here too and interested in the 6.8. Are you finding what you need?I'm looking strictly for the nonlead issue I have to deal with in Cali. That speed should work for copper expansion at longer ranges.
I also went with browning hells canyon long range 26" barrel have not had time to go testing but I'll report soon.I went with the browning Hells Canyon long range 6.8, I already had a Hells Canyon speed in 7mm-08 I liked that platform that was the reasoning. I took it to a long range shooting school I have the ballistic data proven out to 1200 yards if you’d like to take a look at it

I got an X-Bolt HCS, too. No mods.
Really happy with it. Shot MOA on the first range trip, and I didn't even have the stock / eye relieve situated correctly. (Need to add a cheek riser, scope eye relief was off.)
Recoil is almost negligible. I mean, it's not as light as an AR-15 or anything, but it's nowhere near the kick of the unbraked .308 I was shooting before.
This will be my last bolt gun for quite a while.
Yes, mine came with a radial brake, and I'm referring to the recoil while braked.Does the HCS have a brake? If so, when you say recoil is negligible, are you shooting it with the brake?
Seekins low rings 30mm on a 20 moa egw rail for referenceAny changes to the gun or just as is? Keep pondering one.
