    6 ARC Neck Thickness

    Thank you. I appreciate that. I think I'll be able to use brass from my supply.

    I'm headed out next week to Area 11 again. Have you been out that way? What is your plan this year?

    This one still makes me laugh the most.

    6 ARC Neck Thickness

    I'm thinking about a 6mm ARC and I would like to use the supply of 22 PPC brass I already have. What is the neck thickness of the factory Hornady brass? I have some Norma 22 PPC brass at 0.011-0.012" and some Lapua 220 brass at 0.014-0.015", and others in between.

    Wyoming Whitetails

    I hunted area 11 last year in late October and took a small 8-pointer on the second day. I'm going back again this year. The rancher and guides all claim to have seen a big 10-pointer last year, but no one got him. I'll be looking for him this year. They call it a 5x5 out west. I did hear about...

    Another Idaho General Deer Down

    Show us the gun, if it's not the one in your avatar. And, yes, congratulations. Those pictures are incredible! And they will tell a great story for decades. Well done.

    Telling someone you have 'ignored' them = name calling?

    Isn't telling someone you're ignoring them the opposite of actually ignoring them?

    I would like to hear of the losses using this combination also. As many times as this bullet has been used successfully, there have to be some wounded/missed outcomes.

    I'm also really glad to see the moderators and contributors holding fast to the scientific method, and to facts!

    That's perfect. I already have the 105 VLD, but after seeing the results from the 108 ELD-M posted earlier in the thread, I'm tempted to try them. Thank you.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    Thank you. I'll have to locate some. What bullet do you recommend for a 1-8" twist 6 BR?

    We start at 5000 and only get up to about 5600 feet in Wyoming. I live at 700 feet above sea level, which is where I do my shooting. Will the TMK be accurate at 100 or 200 yards? I assumed a 1-8 twist was necessary for that bullet.

    I just finished reading this entire thread. Took me a week. This may be the best use of the internet since its inception. I had a 1-9 twist 22 PPC listed for sale before reading. I have since taken it back and ordered a metric ton of 69gr TMKs. Guess I'm going to shoot the heck out of it until...
