Wanting to build a 6mm ARC.. If anyone has one they don’t want anymore or parts, send them my way. Thanks
 
I have both 16" and 18" inbound tomorrow.
You plan on keeping both? I got lucky and bought a case of 105gr Hornady Black when they had some in stock a couple weeks ago. Been able to find any ammo or brass for sale?
 
Three 16" and two 18" coming.

Think I'm going to build up the 16". I live at 5000' elevation, so it is like having a 2" longer barrel at this density altitude.

Gonna slap a NF ATACR F1 4-16x42 on top and put my Thunder Beast Dominus CB can out front.

Go with the longer barrel...only getting 2500fps average out of my faxon 20" barrel before pressure signs w cfe223. Needless to say I'm experimenting w different powders.

Gotcha.. My barrel comes in today.. I’m going to see what kind of velocities I get out of the 16” then might buy the 18” as well.

Willing to let go of one of them 18’ers???
 
Thanks, but one 18" is being built into a complete rifle now, and the other is being considered for a full build, as well. Same for two of the 16" barrels.

I could spare one 16". Reason for selling - out of 6mm ARC bolts!!! With no relief in sight.....

my man:cool: thanks!

if anyone is on the fence these things will flat out shoot. I’m not some great shot. Drilled this 3 shot group right after sighting scope in. Shot several more sub half moa (obviously posted best lol) after that we put data in, dialed up 500 and I rang steel 4 times in a row from 12 inches down to 4. I’ve never shot past 200 prior to that.

Kicking this back up because I too am struggling to find a 18” or longer barrel. Was hopeful for a proof but damn!🤦🏻‍♂️😞
