Geissele GFR Maritime Reconnaissance 6mm arc write up and review

My friend has a build with a Noveske 12.5 barrel. This is the AB numbers I ran off his velocity of 2369 fps with eld-m’s.

Great info! I should have said out to 500y (about as far as I want to shoot a 556). Certainly better long range performance with the ARC, but I don't love the 1 MIL of drop from 800 to 850.

I will say that the idea behind my 14.7" is to compromise somewhere between the 11.5" and 18" which I think it will do well (and the 14.7" is probably what I'll end up keeping if I can get the lighter bullets to a speed to help me hold coyote fur to 300y)
 
finally got the gfr scoped properly to a more fitting optic and got it zeroed. Rifle hadn’t been shot since doing this review. Added the hux 6k as well and shot two 5 shot groups back to back. These weren’t cherry picked and were the only two I shot. Used 108 grn eld match. Maybe it’s just me but for a chrome lined barrel that’s pretty damn good to me.
