Look at my first post and follow the links to Hornadys site to read up. All things being equal a 6.5 gets a higher HITS score than a 6.8SPC because the 6.8SPC does not cause as much damage to a game because of its short stubby shape and lower BC compared to a 6.5mm bullet. That said HITS does not factor in the TYPE of bullet so when doing comparisons you should use the same type of bullet to take out that variable.
