I’ll refrain from turning this post into a love letter to this new 6mm ARC. Took my cold bore shot with it this afternoon at a target that I’ve struggled on when shooting my 223. It’s a 4° uphill angle which doesn’t seem bad until I try to settle in on it. It’s a 10” target at 730 yards. Today’s wind was 1mph. Temp was 19° and I center punched it. The Hornday 103 ‘ELD-X ammo has been very consistent from this box. I still have a lot to practice but I think this rifle is going to be the one I tell the grandkids about.
