Anyone using 6mm ARC or similar? Am looking into 6mm for a AR. Just starting my research. Thanks.

I'm in the 6mm ARC game but due to brass and affordable ammo, I've not done any testing beyond initial zero of the rifle and a hog kill.

While there might be better barrels out there, I went with the 18" SS from Ballistic Advantage.



I have TONS of 6mm bullets, plenty of primers, and lots of powder... brass has been on backorder since Oct of last year. I have about 360 factory rounds and the initial accuracy both suppressed an unsuppressed looks good to me.



The 108gr ELD dropped this hog in his tracks at about 75 yards.



I think it's a neat cartridge, I'm looking forward to cooler weather here so I can get some more shots on coyote and hogs. I'll also try it on deer as well. I think the lack of ammo and brass is hurting the growth of the cartridge. I've read where guys are making ARC brass from Grendel brass but the results seem to be mixed.

Nice group, hoser.  [/Bob and Doug McKenzie accent]

Nice shooting. Have you tried 1000 yards yet? Just saw Brownels has 6MM ARC uppers from Aero. Still on the fence on 6MM looking at all the different versions.

I am building a 6 ARC right now. The Aero Upper at Brownells is the only 1 in 7 twist I have run across. All of the other barrels seem to be 1 in 7.5. I wound up going with a proof research 18" Barrel.
