LeverEvolution seems to be working well so far for me. 28.5 & 29.5 are where I'm at. 18 in Proof Barrel.
Yes
My 1st proof barrel arrived friday and my other rifle is shooting the leverevolution
Still playing with the ELD-X.

I’m not running the ARC, but it’s very similar , only difference is the shoulder angle. 29.2g of leverevolution is the most accurate so far. Behind a 95g TMK. .310 MOA @ 100. Going to fine tune it though. Stretched it to 525yds, consistent hits 12”x12” plate, right on par .5 MOA at that range. I’m wanting to try some VIT N140. 22” barrel gas gun
Not much info on SH yet so I figured I'd share my data so far.
Ballistic Advantage 18" 1/7 twist Gas gun build.
Running a magnetospeed on a .30 Crux Archangel can.
Hornady Black Factory 105gr Ammo
5 Shot Avg 2649fps
Hornady Match Factory 108gr ELD-M
5 Shot Avg 2628fps
Hand load data so far:
Berger 108 HPBT Target
CFE 28.6gr
New Hornady Brass
FED 205M AR Primers
5 Shot Avg 2538fps SD 8.1
- Groups have been around 1moa so far. Plan on bumping it up to 28.9gr next outing. May try and push it harder but I might be seeing some flattening on my primers already.
Berger 108 HPBT Target
R-17 28.9gr
FED 205M AR Primers
5 Shot Avg 2490fps SD 22
- Pretty much at case capacity so giving up on this powder.
Next outing I've loaded some AA2520, Shooters World Precision under more Berger's. Also going to try LeverEvolution under some Nosler 105gr RDF bullets. Data so far is referenced from Hornady and FB 6mm ARC Reloaders group. Not much other published official data so working up slow.

I received via e-mail Hodgdon's load data after asking for it.. LOTS of info.. PM me with your e-mail address and I'll forward it.. I'll be concentrating on LEVERevolution plus a few more I already had.. Have NOT yet received my 16"-barreled CMMG R.200 Mk.4 rifle.

I’ve had a lot of good results with lever! Somewhere between 28-2900fps. 22” barrel. Accurate and no signs of pressure yet. I’ve seen a list from hodgdon and want to try a few others as well, that I have. Definitely interested to see what results you’re going to get.
Gonna send you a PM for this info as well!
Side note to you guys, there is a lacking of info on here, but is a pretty awesome Facebook group I’m a part of.
I'm interested in this round for a Uinta Precision Upper for my Too Be Banned AR15 and would kindly request that all loads stipulate Gas or Bolt at the out set!
Thanks!
Thanks!
