    Scope for 6.5 Creedmoor AR10 - Mark 4 4.5-18, Mark 5 3.6-18, Stryker 3.5-21, LHT 4.5-22, NX8 2-20, March Fx, or?

    Man - I love that March, but noticed it's back up in price. Bummer. I'm one of the minions that follows the DLO recommendations closely. His insights had me looking closely at the Delta Stryker for this particular rifle, but thought I'd ask more generically here. Thanks for the insight about...

    Have a sweet, lightweight AR10 build in 6.5 Creedmoor. I plan to hunt, compete, and shoot ELR (out to 1200 yards). I have a Primary Arms Glx Apollo on it now and though i love the speed of hits with a slaved Radius rangefinder, I have really been disappointed with the glass. Following are key...

    Need Advice - Ejector Swipes with reloads suppressed, Creedmoor AR10

    Following up here so my experience can help others. I went to the range with a load I had tested previously that left marks on brass with the combination in the OP (Xanthos AR10, Proof 20" barrel, JP VMOS BCG, SCS, with Silencerco Omega). 147 ELD M with 42.2 gn RL 16 & Hornady Brass I've...

    6.5 Creedmoor Loads - Hornady 147 gr ELD-M (H4350 and RL16 Preferred)

    Great choice of rifle - I live MPA although I don't yet own one. Quick update to this thread - the following load shoots really, really well in both my gas guns and bolt guns. 147 ELD-M 42.2 gn RL 16 Hornady Brass Either Federal or CCI LRP I went out to shoot my new CAT ODB yesterday with my...

    6mm ARC bolt gun for competition?

    That is a sick build! Are you running bolt pressure loads? Please post results (load data, velocity, accuracy) as I'm considering a near identical build for PRS for an efficient, low recoil 6. Very cool!

    6mm ARC bolt gun for competition?

    For what it's worth, my gas gun pet loads are primarily with Varget. I'll be very interested to see how fast these same loads run in a bolt with a longer barrel as these are from an 18" Proof: 26.7 gn Varget with 108 ELDM 2545 fps 26.8 gn Varget with 105 Hybrids 2551 fps 29.7 gn Lever with 108...

    6mm ARC bolt gun for competition?

    Thanks! I'll check it out. I live in Utah and a lot of locals use Lone Peak. I ran one today and it was buttery smooth.

    6mm ARC bolt gun for competition?

    Good question - no real budget per se. I'm a relative noob to PRS but shoot a bunch. I ran my DT SRS through a few matches, but a more purpose built solution is preferable. I stumbled on this thread after Goigle brought me an article of the Howa 1500 in an Oryx chassis and got me thinking. I...

    6mm ARC bolt gun for competition?

    Chiming in as one of those gas guys who is considering a move to 6mm ARC bolt for competition. Given your experience, what action, barrel, chassis would you start with if you were looking to have fun and be competitive, but not wince every time it smacks a barricade?

    308 vs. 6.5 Creed in 16 inch lightweight bolt gun for mountain trekking

    For what it's worth, this is what I did. 16" Proof Barrel in a Q Fix with a Silencerco Omega using the Gtiffin Titanium Brake and Plan A Mount. Shooting 147s over 42.2-42.5 RL16 gives 3-shot groups in the .2-.4s and spits em out at 2555-2570 with SDs of 3.8 for 6 shots. With a Vortex LHT this...

    Into the lands ? With pics of my specific 6 ARC load

    Great input and results! Did you track velocities for those loads?

    Into the lands ? With pics of my specific 6 ARC load

    FWIW - I agree that there aren't a bunch of videos/posting showing great groups for the ARC - I find the same thing with the Q Fix. However, owning both with Proof CF barrels (18" ARC and 16" 6.5 Creed) I've had great accuracy into sub .5 moa groups with each, but had to find the bullet/powder...

    HELP!! 6mm ARC cases stuck after sizing?

    Ha! Like a lava lamp! In the end - stuff like this makes it all worthwhile. My son out prepping before heading to some P-Dog towns... 8-year-old at 600 Yards

    HELP!! 6mm ARC cases stuck after sizing?

    That F-Class barrel is artillery! Gorgeous rifles. You need to come to our neck of the woods to stretch their legs. We typically set up steel at 600, 1000, 1200, and 1800 yards when we head out. Fun to bring friends who hunt but don't shoot as much and ask them how far they think the 600...

    HELP!! 6mm ARC cases stuck after sizing?

    This is where I ended up and backtracked - I have one sub 1/4 minute load for my DTA SRS (literally one hole groups half the time) that took quite a bit of time to perfect, but I ended up scrapping it as it's 41.3 RL 17 under 143 ELDx and RL 17 proved to be terribly temperature sensitive. I...
