    22 ARC

    3000+, depending on how you treat your barrel.

    22 ARC

    Actually a 90 gr A-Tip out of a 224 Grendel/22ARC AR will outperform a 6 GT.

    22 ARC

    I’m with you. Although I’m not a Barnes fan, the Hammer Monos are phenomenal, kill quickly, carry plenty of energy, and are super easy to work up loads with. I finished load development in my 22 CM yesterday with the Hammer 68 gr HHT, and it took a total of 13 rounds.

    22 ARC

    You’ve not shot too many copper monos, have you, more specifically anything other than Barnes?

    22 ARC

    I’ve already asked Derek at Horizon about the bullets, he said it will be a while because everything is going to 22 CM ammo right now.

    22 ARC

    The 22 Creedmor is taking precedence with the 80 ELD-X, since Hornady is making factory ammo now, and the 22 Creedmor will be SAAMI approved in Jan.

    22 ARC

    Jefferson Outdoor, and Oregon Gunsmithing both make a hinged floorplate with internal magbox, BDL style for the Howa Mini that works phenomenally well. Jefferson Outdoor also makes a conversion bottom metal for the Howa Mini, that allows you to use CZ 527 mags.

    22 ARC

    You will be able to neck down Lapua 220 Russian or Grendel brass, with no issue.

    22 ARC

    Side by Side, the 22 ARC looks to have a shorter neck, and maybe even more capacity than the 224 Grendel, being that they both have the same case length. Definitely not the smaller dimensions and lesser capacity of the 6 ARC.

    22 ARC

    It’s a .447 bolt face, same as the .220 Russian, 7.62x39, and PPCs.

    22 ARC

    Just build you a 6 Grendel, on a Howa, and keep the extra performance over the 6 ARC.

    22 ARC

    The 22 ARC has the same length case as the 6.5 Grendel, and 224 Grendel, and not the shorter 6ARC, so it should be pretty much identical or very very similar in case capacity, and not shorted by the shorter length of the 6ARC. Look a few posts up, I posted the 22 ARC specs.

    22 ARC

    The 224 Grendel (essentially the same as the 22 ARC) will run a 53 gr V-Max at 3800+ in a gas gun with a 7 twist. That’s very much within 22-250 performance.

    22 ARC

    No, it’s true.

    22 ARC

    I shot 75 ELD-Ms at 3100 out of my 22” 224 Grendel. It will also shoot 90 gr A-Tips at 2825 fps which will out pace a 6 GT.

    22 ARC

    They are releasing a 80 gr ELD-X.
  17. slickyboyboo

    22 ARC

    The 22 ARC case is the same 1.52” length as the 6.5 Grendel, and not 1.49” like the ARC.

    22 ARC

    The 223 AI will get close to the Valkyrie but the 22 ARC is the same as the 224 Grendel and will give you another 10% over the Valkyrie.

    22 ARC

    The 22 ARC, appears to be nothing more than a SAAMI version of the 224 Grendel. Handloaded, the 224 Grendel will outpace the Valkyrie by approximately 10% across the board, so around 300 fps with a 75 gr ELD-M. That’s also in an AR platform, in a bolt gun, you could get a little more out of it.
