Surefire brakes are awesome but loud as hell.

Well guys I appreciate all the info and feedback. This thread has a lot of great opinions and facts in it. I've been thinking about what to go with and I have decided on 6x45. If I wanted the more energy or the ability to reach out to 1k plus with my AR, I would go Grendel or maybe a 6.5...

Nice rifle Jason! All things considered what's the barrel life difference on average b/w these two rounds..just curious. A lot of love it seems for the 6.5

I'm going to be shooting closer than that on most occations I would guess 2-500 mostly but occasionally wanting to reach out. That's why I was looking at the 6x45 but the 6mmAR is pretty interesting.

What's the benefit of 6mmAR over the Grendel? Its a 6.5 necked down to 6mm right, so better choice in bullets with better BC than Grendel, and more capacity than 6x45?

Yea my buddy has a .223 bolt rifle that he can hit out even further than that. It was impressive but I think getting away from the 223 is kind of my goal here to some extent. I like the idea of pushing something heavier and I def can use this for some yotes or other varmints out in the desert...

Okay I haven't really looked into the 6x6.8 but I have a .308 bolt rifle that I use right now for matches. I'm gonna be building a .260 bolt rifle next but I have some extra lowers and wanted to build a long range 20" AR. Instead of .556 I was thinking maybe 6x45 and pushing something 90-100gr...

Hey guys I've been undecided on which to build and read a bit of the pros/con's of each. I have a couple lowers and was looking into a long range build for the range. Will be shooting steel/paper out to 600-700 yards max. If I already had a rifle length AR I would choose the 6x45, but I'm going...

So I want to be purchasing a Kestrel soon but I'm not sure which one to get. I know some of the higher end models have more features but all I really need it for is DA. As long as it can calculate density altitude accurately I really don't care about the "extra" features b/c I doubt I'll be...

Re: Timney Trigger arrived! (#511) I had my Rem 700 with reg trigger for a while and I shortened it but it still was not in the same universe as my Timney. I've had my 510 for about 4 months and it is like butter. I've heard the Jewell triggers are nice but after owning a Timney I can't see...

Re: Liberty Optics (the Storefront) is born Great work Scott it's well deserved! Thanks for the great product and customer service.

Re: Weaver vs. Vortex?? Opinions? I have a PST 6-24x50ffp and for the price its a great scope. Very nice glass and a clean, sharp reticle. Plus the VIP warranty isn't too bad either
