Thanks. The more I have been thinking about it, the more the 6.5cm makes sense also. It seems like a good starting point. I will be running a Nomad on it. Would you still go with a 26-28"? That would be a long boy.

Do you think I would see a huge diffrence in being able to spot my misses between a 6.5cm and the 6mm options?

I doubt anyone getting hit by a 6.5creed or. 308 in COM or the head is going to notice the difference. It's going to be an instantly incapacitating kill shot either way.

My order history worked fine (well you only get 2 years anyway and I don't buy much from them). I'm not a fan of the website, huge pictures, no option to put things in the cart from the index pages, no easy way to find demo/used stuff, but my failing eyes do appreciate the fact even I can read the page without reading glasses! I don't think it's that big of a deal, they can tweak it. That said I will never understand why companies pay tons of $ to replace perfectly good websites.

Do not cave to the new fear/bully trend that stores are doing where they try and manipulate you into paying them extra for insurance saying that if you don't you agree to not hold them liable for lost/stolen/damaged merchandise if you don't want to. The shipper is responsible for ensuring your purchased goods arrives safely and in the expected condition even if you don't pay insurance. This has come up a lot lately in various places and I've never heard a case where a credit card company did not side with the buyer on a charge back if something happens to your package before it arrives to you if you don't pay extra for insurance. Stores don't care because if even 50% of the people pay it, it's a ton of extra profit for them and a few charge backs are worth it. I don't even mind paying extra for some insurance on expensive/delicate stuff, but don't threaten me into doing it. Heck if you like the store and just want to give them a "tip" feel free, but understand that's all it is. Doesn't matter what they put on the checkout page that you have to click to agree to, or if you pay for insurance, the seller is responsible for your package getting to you safely, period.

It's basically the new tipping scam where regardless of how much or little service you get they put it in your face to tip them on the card swipe machine, except instead they put a threat on the bill that if you don't tip them and find rat shit in your food, it's your fault for not tipping them.

The other new trend I dislike (and Euro just sent me one) is stores that use abandoned cart emails, spamming you with emails after you poke around their website but don't buy anything. "Your cart is calling". All it does it make me want to is unsubscribe and ban their email address.

As always though vote with your $, if you don't like a stores practices, shop elsewhere.

If you think that shipping is bad, the other day I saw a store that was wanted $52 to ship two bricks of 22LR, and that was before the insurance!

Looks like they have lost there fn minds. $2k plus !!!@@ really! If I drop that kind of coin on an optic it will have something else on the side of it. They are not the only ones. Even leapers got one $1k plus now. In the market for a 3-18 or 4-20 shopping and comparing. Looking for budgetishhh optic for an ar spr ish. For that kind of price it had beter have some damned good glass. IMHO which don't mean a damn thing. Just not getting my $$$$.

Getting ready to start the 6 ARC build so I can play with the different bullet weights and speeds, I am gonna pair this build with a gas gun so I can look at the progression from gasser to bolt in the 6 arc space.

My Zeus build is on a Zermatt Matterhorn stock which is just crazy nice. View attachment 8655918
The barrels are being spun up by Bugholes as we speak for some Terminus PreFit Action

I have a 20" and 24" barrel coming so can I can experiment with the shorter barrels in the 6 arc space as they intended but also a longer barrel to get the speed, in the end it may require a 26" to get it right for comps, but I think with the factory bullets we have a potential to bridge the gap in cost to play, correctly.

With Hornady having a :

105gr at 2750, we know this is probably too slow, it repeats the Valkyrie numbers but with a 6mm so...

Then they have the 103 ELDX which is 2800, might be the right first try, the speed is correct.

Finally for factory loads i am lookin at, the 80gr Varmint load 3000fps, this might be the ticket considering the results we are seeing with the 100gr 65CM. The 100gr 65CM is bad on paper, great on steel, so at 3k, the 80gr load might be the ticket

Anyway, this is my start, more to come
