the 230 gr bullets were longer taking up more powder space, so I wasn't impressed with the velocity at around 2200 fps, with the powder... -
Gtscotty replied to the thread What AR15 cartridge is a worthwhile step up from 5.56?.If you say so boss, sounds like speculation to me without knowing what non-canister powder Hornady used, or having any pressure data or...

Laid up and recovering from surgery but this is my almost complete 6ARC. Just waiting on the NF ATACR 4-16 to top it off. Seekins...

Not mine^ 12.5" arc with handloads and depending on conditions it can stay super out to 1000 yards. It pairs as a great target rifle...
