Hornady is giving away FREE 6mmARC data for their 108 and 110s, so I am taking the liberty of posting here. (Posted originally on the 6mmARC.com forum.)
No inside info. I just know it when I see it. This is real. 6.5 Grendel is a hunting cartridge that can be used for targets. 6mmARC is a target cartridge that can be used for hunting. ALL AR15 and ALL GOOD. :cool:
It WILL make it into production. As pointed out, this IS the announcement. Hornady's gonna be BIG behind their new 6mmARC and they're gonna do it right and it's gonna be good! I've been gearing up to make barrels for this ever since the first post in this thread. HERE WE GO!
It would be a fantastic competitor in the NGSW program. If the military is OK with "proof-round" pressure levels in standard infantry weapons, then a very high-pressure 6mmARC with either a polymer case or SIG's brass body/stainless steel case head is the cartridge to beat — assuming they want...
If they didn't shorten the case to avoid accidental loadings and their attendant legal issues, then they shortened the case for technical reasons to "build-in" accuracy. Many seem to think that technical accuracy is improved when bullets are seated with the boattail at the neck/shoulder...
SAAMI drawing for 6mmARC says Maximum Average Pressure (MAP) is 52,000 psi and is still launching a 108gr @ 2700 fps. This cartridge is gonna be just fine on pressure and will be a joy to shoot with easy recoil. Want to hotrod it with handloads? Cool. Your choice. Practice standard...
Agree on both counts. 6mmAR, since they're so similar, is also designed perfectly for a long-range 6mm in an AR. With its 0.441 case head you get the biggest diameter cartridge that can double stack within a standard AR magazine well, plus you get plenty of room for long, sleek ogives with the...
6mmARC is designed perfectly for today's long-range shooting from an AR platform. Dimensionally-correct illustration attached shows 6mmARC at COL of 2.260 loaded with a Berger 6mm 105gr Hybrid Target bullet (G1 BC 0.536).
Young Manufacturing also has an enhanced bolt, as well as JP, but any standard Grendel bolt will work. Been working for something like 16 years now and still on the rise. Any Grendel magazine will work. Question is, would the market want 6mmARC bolts with a 0.136 boltface counterbore (which I...
No doubt Hornady was planning on making an official, public announcement of the 6mmARC at the NRA Show in Nashville — until it was cancelled over Covid19. And now I'm guessing they're waiting out the whole Covid19 thing. IF Hornady releases the 6mmARC, it's gonna be a 224 Valkyrie killer —...
