Hornady 6mm ARC
« on: June 03, 2020, 09:13:30 AM »
Looks to be a straight neck down of the 6.5 Grendel to 6mm. The cartridge has had great success as a wildcat (.243 LBC/ 6mm Grendel) Hornady has produced a SAAMI chamber with factory ammunition. It should be received by hunters/Varmint hunters well. The first barrels were just put on sale exclusively at Brownells. Ballistic Advatage is providing the barrels. Hornady will be manufacturing factory ammunition. Hornady Black 105gr BTHP. In the near future. A 108gr ELD-M load and a Precision Hunter load with the 103gr ELD-X.

1-7 twist barrels, Type II standard Grendel bolt.

Great news. Wouldn't mind seeing a howa or CZ mini action chambered for this in the future.

 :yeah: Sounds like it could be fun to rebarrel my cz 7.62x39 to that one.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun
