6mm ARC Velocities

[The Guide]

Anyone see the new Federal Factory 108 Berger Target load that is coming out in the Gold Metal Match line? Midway has it as coming soon but doesn't have a velocity number with it yet.

Interesting. I might get a box and if I my rifle likes it, I’ll try to reverse engineer it.

I'm glad to see options other than the big red H. I just hope that it isn't anemic gas gun speeds. A 2750 fps 108 grain factory load would be a game changer.

I average 2578 FPS from a 20 inch Faxon-barreled AR with factory 108 ELDM after 40 rounds.

UPDATE: I added a suppressor and swapped out the MagnetoSpeed Sporter for a Garmin Xero C1 and averaged 2652 FPS with that 20" faxon barrelled AR for rounds 70-90 on the barrel. Same lot ammo

Didn’t see a threads specifically for 6 ARC, so figured I’d get this going for people to share velocities and barrel lengths on their 6 ARC. This should help folks get a baseline of what to expect when they are considering building one.

16” Proof stainless AR barrel, suppressor, factory ammo. Accuracy was about equal between the factory 108 eldm and factory 103 eldx. These are the first shots down the barrel so I am expecting them to speed up and settle in a little.

Just curious which gas block did you go with? Adjustable?

I'm still trying to get the sanders upper working, having some bcg sticking issues. I have an 18" BSF carbon fiber coming for light weight build.
