6x45

[Taudisio]

See messing up my good puff would make me cry. I know they will be releasing 6 arc soon. Be interested to see how arc bolts hold up to 100K psi

That’s exciting, as I have a 6arc waiting for me to do the paperwork on…

I just received 2-3rd and 2-4rd 223XL (2.70") mags from @pods8 (Rugged Stitching)

i cycled 2.25" 223 through them several times and they feed perfect.
then I cycled 2.55" 6x45 through them, they also cycled perfect.
Then at the range, cycled/fired what I had loaded. zero issues.

These may be exactly what the 223/6x45 w/heavies needs to maximize their potential.

Have you tested any of the 107's in the 6x45 yet? What kind of velocities are you seeing?

Is there a website or did you have to message them for the mags?

Classified listing below, but ultimately I ask that you email [email protected] to coordinate an order.

I don't have those "Tikka 223XL" listed up yet because I just made them per @longrangelead request till they functioned on my end (limited testing cycling 6x45 rounds into my 223 till they jamed) and then sent them to him for full validation.

PLEASE EMAIL your order request to [email protected] , requests will be first come first served for inventory and being added onto my build list if inventory is depleted. Posting in this thread will not initiate an order (I will reply asking you to email me if needed).

I need to clearly know quantity, color, and what cartridge / size (ie round count) you are asking for so I can accurately advise on inventory status, fulfill the order and/or add to my build list.

Product discussion thread here, please read and ask product questions here as needed...

That’s a lot of pressure to be creating 6” from your face.

the long ones in the pic are 107's. They are left overs from Form's initial tests.
I'll have to double check, but iirc, they were around 2550 and no pressure signs.

To what are you referring to?

I have one and it's a decent caliber. Push 223 brass in a 6x45 die and you're done.
GR for gr, it'll shoot faster than 223. Bc for bc, it'll shoot slower. So there's trade offs.

There's also 20 practical if you wanna go smaller.
Or 25-45 if you wanna go larger.
