LS Wild Armory 6 PRC barrel/rifle project

0.279 nk?

I believe so. Loaded Lapua brass has right at a .275 neck diameter, so about a .004” clearance. Just right

Agreed, I run ADG in my 6prc, it's right at 2745 loaded. 279 is perfect!

Lapua is no neck turn, and it seems to be among the thickest necks. It has been neck size and go with new Lapua brass.

We have been busy, and I need to get the word out, but we got out FFL website up and running. It has our barrels now.

We have 19” fluted 6 NSI (6 PRC wildcat) in stock. And, I will be doing another preorder as we build inventory.

I found the barrel on your website, but it doesn’t mention the twist rate. Is it 7 or 7.5?

What brand go and no gauges are you using on the pbb 6nsi?

The current barrels are 7 twist. Future barrels will be 7.5 twist. I put both into the Berger Twist calculator and don’t see a problem.

I have been shooting mostly 95 TMK and haven’t had a problem at all. I will be loading up more to try to pressure out and will see if anything happens.

Awesome. Put me down for a 7.5 twist hybrid light tikka prefit please in the next order as long as you’re planning to have it placed by end of spring for summer delivery.

I didn’t see any need for a 7 twist either using the Hornady calculator with the 109 ELDMs.

I’m in this boat as well. 18” 7.5 twist hybrid lite non fluted. $$$$ hoping for a pre order soon as im pretty tempted on the current inventory.

I will be getting some soon. Thanks for the encouragement. It’s expensive to stock barrels, and we’re trying to build inventory without going to the bank.

I have an order of $50,000.00 (retail) coming in with more 6mm and a handful of 22 creeds.

Should I stick with 19” or you think 18” is the place to be?

I would prefer 18 but could live with 19. If you’d rather do a pre order so you don’t have to take on all the overhead, that cool with me also.

Thanks for what you’re doing. It’s awesome to have another option for prefit barrels.

I think 19 is a good compromise that catches the 18 and 20” guys. I was leaning towards 20” on the 6 PRC since the velocity is important and not unwieldy with a 6” suppressor. Also I have zero faith my scythe will hold up to 58 grains of powder in an 18” 6mm bore.

Im very interested in ordering one of the 7 twist 19 inch 6 PRC barrels from the LS website. My only concern is with bullets exploding at high rpms. Does anyone here happen to have any more info? Are the current 7 twist shooting 108/109 eldms or the 105-115 bergers or 112 match burners with no problems? Would hate to randomly blow out a suppressor! How long until the 7.5 twist hit the shelves? I have the barrel sitting in my cart as I post this lol.

 

[Foster_65]

Not sure if everyone has seen this or not but @hereinaz posted a group buy in the firearms forum. I specked a 18 in 6prc with nsi reamer, no flutes hybrid lite. Price is 487. I think that’s a great deal. If your interested or have been looking go over and commit to a barrel or 3. Need a few more to get it off the ground

Check out the preorder post I made, Foster mentions it, if you want the 7.5 twist

I have been shooting the 95 grain TMK to break in and have fun at 3150 fps and it hasn’t blown up an OG yet.

Next couple of days should be enough, but it will stay open most of December if needed.
