22 ARC build question

[HandgunHTR]

Hey all. I have decided that my next build will be a 22 ARC. I am thinking that I will either build off of a Tikka .223 action by having the bolt face opened up, or use a ARC Coup de Grace action.

My only hang-up is around what magazines I would use with either of those. I am pretty sure that the Tikka 223 mags won't work with those larger ARC cases. With the Coup de Grace actions, they are AICS/AIAW only and the only options I see for those mags are 10 or 12 rounders. Not sure that I am digging that. I like a bit more of a flush fit.

For those of you who have a 6 ARC, or any of the wildcats built off of a Grendel/PPC, what are you using for bottom metal/mags?

Or, should I look to build off of a different action?

Sorry, duplicate post. For some reason there is a lag on my end.

Did you ever get this figured out?

If you do a Tikka 22, just go 22-250 and have it punched out to 22 Creedmoor. If you want a 22 ARC, go Howa Mini with aftermarket Jefferson Outdoors hinged bottom metal.

No. Still no good options out there.

Decided to just build a .22 Creedmoor on a Tikka action and use factory or HCA mags.
