That sounds awesome.I put a Proof Research pre-fit stainless 26" on a Bighorn (Zermatt) Origin action. A Trigger Tech Diamond 2 stage trigger and an MPA BA Comp chassis. Shooting 108 ELD-M's at 2850 FPS. Consistent out to 15-1600 yards. Hit the mile target with it a couple of times, but I think that distance is a little too far for the ARC. Lots of fun to shoot, zero recoil, you see everything happening in the scope. It sips powder compared to other long range offerings.
Good to hear. Did you get the same savage?Shouldn't be a problem, just to fire form some 6.5 Grendel brass I was pushing 87 Vmax bullets 3050 using 31 grains of Leverloution, 22" barrel no signs of over pressure and below the 32.5 grain max listed load. Elevation was about 1300' and 22" barrel…
Maybe 2800. 243 Winchester, using a 308 case, can struggle to get much over 3000 with 100gr bullets.My hopes are to be able to push the heavier pills to at least 2800-3000 fps.
It's crazy that 6 arc is pushing the same pills as fast as the bigger 243 with about half the powder.Maybe 2800. 243 Winchester, using a 308 case, can struggle to get much over 3000 with 100gr bullets.
I went something different, I'm running a bolt action AR upper…. Just because it was easy and different from most 6mm ARC rifles out there.Good to hear. Did you get the same savage?
Lol, yup!What's old is new. The 1895 6MM Lee Navy might be considered the grandfather of all of this. Since it begot the .220 Swift, I wonder if a .243 Swift might be the thing? Such a cartridge would fit the AR10 platform. Hmmm...
Thanks for the heads up on the bullets. They had quite a selection of various calibers in stock.I got the Savage from sportsmans last week. One range session so far with factory hornady 108 eldm match ammo. I'm impressed. Shoots great groups with not much recoil. FYI midway has the 103 eldx factory seconds on sale right now for $32 a hundred. Just got 500 to try.
