6mm ARC Handloading: Reloading 75 & 85 V-Max with AR-Comp. Part 2 

Amazing shooting you have definitely got it !

Thanks for the content

I worked up a load for my two 6mm ARC AR15’s one has a proof research barrel the other one has a Wilson combat gunner profile both 18” using Hornady brass CCI400 primers 87 grain vmax and Leverevolution 31.7 grains they both produce almost identical results 1/2” MOA groups 2953 F/PS no pressure signs kryptonite on Coyotes . Last time I tested them it printed 3.4 inches at 600 yards for five shots.

Just some quick info. Working up 6mm arc with 75g v-max using ramshot tac. Not getting good SD/ES, best I have been able to get is 35fps ES, 13fps SD at an avg 2958fps at over 1.0g below max. Was hoping TAC would be a good performer with the 75s based on how well it did in 223, no so much.

Good work. LEVEREVOLUTION with CFE 223 being a second choice are good powders for velocities and accuracy.

I worked up some loads a couple years ago using Shooters World Match Rifle powder now they finally recently have load data for 6ARC I made a couple videos shooting the 87gr Hornady Varmint bthp I was averaging 2955 mv at 25 degrees f leverevolution was pretty much the same I prefer SWMR the only powder I ever used reloading 6ARC except for the 1lb of leverevolution thx enjoyable video

Starline is making 6mm arc brass now. just put 250pcs on backorder Friday. Really looking forward to getting them. I just loaded up my first test loads, loading 107g SMK and 85g Nosler Partition with CFE223, and the 75g v-max with TAC. Hoping to test Wednesday. I generally shy away from OCW, I tend to wind a charge I like and tune seating depth. Got a 20in Ballistic advantage barrel.

AR-Comp with 105s did not go together well. I got pressure signs before getting close to decent velocities. It looked like it worked OK with your 75s but not so great with the 87s. I don't think you'll get much life out of the brass before the primer pockets get loose with that powder.

Good information!

Great content

Sweet

I grabbed some starline brass and will be loading 75gr vmax with xbr8208 in my 22" and my 16" 1-10

Just subscribed! What was your COAL for the 75 gr, 87 gr COAL? GREAT VIDEOS..

I just came across your videos today 8/13/23. I like what I'm seeing I did Subscribe I m ninerested in building a 6mm Arch with a 24 inch barrel any suggestions on which one to get.

I was wondering would you actually hunt with that rifle the PRS stock suppressor and the razor G3 it’s quite a bit of weight on it. I have two razor GEN3 on my bolt rifles, and those things are a break sweet glass, sweet turrets tho

I wonder what the difference in case weight makes in actual volume.

🤘🏼

What twist is your rifle ? Mine is like 7.75 I think

Sorry if I missed the specs...what barrel length and twist are you using?

Do you use load development software? I use Gordon reloading tool and have found it very helpful. Check out VV N135 for 6mm ARC varmint loads
