6mm ARC Hunting Loads

[Natebonebusta]

In finding this thread and adding a 6arc to my stable with my already beloved 6.5 Grendel my hunting loads will be:

95tmk 28.7gr of tac 2713fps

107tmk 29.0gr SWPR 2533fps

Both from my 16” Howa mini

Tac is great in both the Grendel and Arc

I have some Varget on order as it’s quite a bit cheaper than shooters world precision rifle at the moment.

Anybody shooting 100gr interlocks or partitions? What recipes and velocities are you seeing. 20” Howa mini id like to get 2750 plus if possible with one of these bullets. Probably go Hornady cause the partitions so expensive. Any experience with those?

Do any members here make 6 arc loading blocks? Need to pick up a couple and would buy some 3D printed ones if anyone here is making them. Thx

I got some Lyman ones made for the Grendel. They were like $5. Fit my arc brass perfectly

I can make some blocks that hold 100 rounds.

Finally got around to loading up some 107 TMKs for my 6mm ARC bolt gun.

I had been loading 108 ELD-Ms over 30 gr of Staball Match but had a few sticky bolts and a bit of primer cratering so for the 107s, I just backed down to 29.5 gr of Staball Match and this was the result:

Tikka action with a 20" ACE Barrel chambered in 6mm ARC by @Unknown Munitions, in a RokStok with an RS1.2 and an @Unknown Suppressors OG6.5 prototype.

Starline once fired brass resized, shoulder bumped 2 thou and run through expander mandrel. 205M primers, 29.5 Gr Staball Match, 107 TMKs loaded 25 thou off the lands.

Where I live and hunt, that load will hit 2004 fps at 600 yards and 1802 fps at 790 yards.

Everything was the same as above except with 109 ELD-Ms producing this:



Both loads are deadly out to about 800 yards - but I try to keep everything 500 and in.
