New Year approaching, new shooters asking question about "getting into PRS"

So I see these questions all the time, and in the beginning they are always gear questions, what to buy. This time however it was a cartridge questions, which caliber, cartridge etc to start out with ?

The answers are crazy and I feel most people have fallen into a confirmation bias trap. If everything has been a variation of monkey see, monkey do, and the masses just repeating the same thing over and over again, how do you actually answer this questions. Let me explain deeper... with some examples of what I mean.

Everyone reads, 6mm, so you want some form of 6mm. And the Mainstream will say, 6 Dasher, 6BR* and so on, but in this case the question was about 6mm ARC and the answer was a resounding NO... the mainstream shoots, 6Dasher, 6GT, 6BR, 6XC, nobody has been successful with the ARC so don't do it.... Really, a 6mm pushing the same bullet is a no go ...

Take a 243 loaded with a 109, a 6XC loaded with a 109, a 6CM loaded with a 109, who win.... everything else is the same.

The small frame AR cartridges are designed to work in a short barreled rifle. So they are working to push efficiency, it would make sense that a bolt gun being the most efficient platform that it would work better... the Valkyrie while dead, is a good example, at 2750fps it's shit, at 3025fps it's awesome, now compare that number to a 22GT and a 22CM, if I can easily move the Valkyrie from 2750 to 2950 without extra effort, I can save a bunch of time and energy and resources.

Consider the brass chasers, why do they chase the brass, hard to find, hard to work it, don't want to lose one. Think about that, they are coveting brass... when brass the expendable part of the equation has that much value you missed the objective.

The Light is Right argument was correct, we have show with the 100gr 6.5CM it's results can pass the 156gr, which is a better bullet on paper, this equation can be made cheaper and easier especially with hand loading

What happens if you take the 100gr 6.5CM and instead of it going 3200fps like it currently does, you downloaded it to 2950, 3000fps, vs a 1, O Something in a 6mm. Samething, if the 105 is going 2850, is that really worse than the 109 going 2850 ? If so, what happens if the 105 goes to 2875 ?

None of the current cartridges started out smooth, they all went through trial and errors, mainly speed, but we have gone weight too, but speed is our biggest manipulator, so that is easy.

I think moving forward a new shooter with a 6ARC can blend in nicely

I was reading it, went ti refresh and boom gone...............

In the interest of single stamp as short as possible 556 guns I previously considered getting a SUURG as far as I can tell you can't buy them anymore not to mention its heavy. Currently contemplating what the shortest single stamp for a sar95 would be. So can I buy a 13" piston setup for one or will they only sell me an SBR?

Then whats the current go to for suppressor/brake combo where the brake is over 3" long? A lot I've used over the years don't seem to be produced anymore. I'd probably get 2 brakes and put one on an ar as well and have 1 suppressor between the two with both being pinned and welded to over 16"

I just finished up with my build and recieved the SG Pulse Level yesterday. My scope is set all the way back on the action rail, so there is no room for the SG Pulse. Tried mounting to the exccess rail in front of the scope mount, but it's adds extra effort to see it as I used the BoBro Scar scope mount and the QD mechanisme sticks out just enought to block most of the light. I'm searching for a ring style adaptor with a small pic rail that I can mount to the 34mm tube on my NF ATACR. Anyone know of such an accessory??? Can't find it anywhere.

Are 400modbb barrels worth the extra $250 over the cost of a 416 blank from bartlein?
Trying to procure a 25 cal 400modbb blank for a potential build in the near future and curious if the juice is worth the squeeze in terms of barrel life increase.

Hopefully this is the correct place to post this question. I've seen precision shooting with an AR10 discuss3d here and on other forums and I've seen mention of having to shoot gas guns differently than a bolt gun. Can anyone point me to some videos or literature that discuss this?

I've been getting somewhat lackluster groupings with my 20" AR10 with Proof Research barrel, and I can't figure out if it's me, the barrel, haven't found the right ammo yet, or too high expectations.

I've tried Hornady ELD-M, Federal Gold Mdeal Match(with SMK and Berger projos), Nosler match. All are bringing out 1.5-2 MOA.

There's a very big possibility that it's a me problem, but if im not shooting the gun correctly I'd rather read or see the right way to shoot a gas gun than waste a shit load of expensive ammo trying to figure it out.
