I am surprised. Why not go to the 6ARC?
Because there are 0 factory varmint loads and I’d much rather not reload. Also - I have a 556 can.

Got the Faxon out today and I'm really impressed. Only 50 yards, I made a scope adjustment, .2 mils left after the 3 outliers on the rite.
This is a 19 shot group with no real wait time. Settle and squeeze, settle squeeze.
It trended down then left as it got warmer.
No doubt it would shoot 5 touching if I was diligent.
Hornady black 77 grn

I ended up staying in 223 and I ordered that exact same barrel before I even saw your post. So glad I did! Thanks for the range report - looking forward to trying mine out.
Let me know what kind of luck you have with lighter varmint loads. Planning on chucking 55 grain vmax or nosler BTs depending on what it likes more.
