I just received my Faxon Remage barrel for the 8.6 BLK. I am looking for headspace gauges. Any suggestions?
I am still searching for ammo. This will he a hunting rig.

Since the parent case is the 6.5 CM I can think of one idea
A.) use virgin brass and mod to case dimensions below and use the old painters tape or shim stock as the No-Go. Load a mid to max sub load for pressure testing and give it hell.
That’s my plan. I just ordered a 16”.
Link to case dimensions.

8.6 Creedmoor or 8.6 BLK or 8.6 Blackout? - LoadDevelopment.com
The 8.6 BLK cartridge pioneered by Kevin Brittingham of Q, changing the game when it comes to hunting rounds.
www.loaddevelopment.com Hmmm, I was hoping not to make something custom. I guess I can sacrifice some Lapua brass.
Did anyone happen to order an extra 12" barrel they would sell?
Remage or AR?
AR. I believe I found one but open to another.
Ok. I have a Remage coming in tomorrow.
What would be a good muzzle device for this sucker? The thread pitch is m18x1.5 with a 20 degree shoulder. The cherry bomb is not out yet. I would like to have a quick detached for a future suppressor.
Wouldn’t it make sense to decide on a can first and the brake for it second?
It would. I would probably get Omega 36M, but not sure what would be best for this caliber.
I see the Omega 36M is rated for 308/7.62 at 16 inches of barrel. I will be using a 12 inch barrel. I need to do some more research for subs and supers on the ammo.

The m18x1.5 thread pitch is limited to Q Cherry Bomb (not release yet), Surefire, and Dead Air. I was hoping the Dead Air Xeno, but doesn't look like it. I guess I could go with KeyMo on a Dead Air Primal.
Silencerco has m18x1.5 thread pitch brakes for their ASR system.
How do you like that chassis?
Posted in error, disregard.
I have the same chassis with a rifle stock. Chassis is great. Just in a debate whether to register it as an SBR or sell the 12" barrel for a 16" and stop worrying about those three letter agencies.
