Has anyone worked up a load for 6ARC using the 106gr Hornady A-Tip "factory seconds?"

@padom

I got 2490 fps in an 18" AR with 26.7 gr N140. That's a near max load. I tried Staball Match with no luck, really slow. Didn't want to go CFE or LVR. Not fast, but those bullets are fantastic.

Edit, sorry the 106 TAP, not A-Tips.

Adding my load I recently used at a quantified precision gas gun match. Shot with a proof 18” SS barrel. It did me well at the match

Hornady brass
Remington 7 1/2 BR primers
Berger 108 BT
29.2 gr CFE223
2580 fps with SD of 12

When I was shooting Berger 105 hybrids it was 27.8 gr of CFE223 for 2520 fps

What mags are yall running? I am having trouble with bolt locking back on last mag. I keep adding gas and it just stays the same.

Thats what I am running. With a KGM R30k The gun shoots soft with very little recoil and muzzle jump. Cycles fine, getting a good 3-4 o clock ejection but the damn thing wont lock back.

If I remember right (not home currently) I think I’m running Grendel duramags and have no issue with them too. I have two 20 rounders and a 10

After reading tons and tons of info, i think the go to is Geiselle and Duramag magazines. Granted i bought 4 of the 15 rounders duragmags. Ive only put around 200 through my rifle but, i have not had any issues. Heard a lot of people were having accuracy issues with adj gas blocks on short dwell time barrels. Ive been playinig with the 107SMK and TAC powder and some more loaded up to try out. Im over book max now by around 1-2 grains. SDs are what i would consider normal for gas guns in the 9-15 range.
