I would jump on another 6x45 barrel. I am terrified to bore scope mine now as I have not been kind to it. I don’t have any interest to AI as of right now. 2625 with the 95 TMK is more than I will ever need.

I would buy one too. I’m still assembling my 223 setup but JUST a barrel swap and possibly a mag mod would be worthwhile.

I would definitely be down for a lightweight portless 6x45 barrel. I already have one of the Shaw barrels on the way but would still like to pick up a 6x45 barrel since Indiana requires 6mm or bigger for deer

Talked to Deb today. They’re slammed with Black Friday stuff, but said she’d get with the boss.

Asked again if we thought there’d be 10 people who want them.

It’s probably worth a roll call to see how easily we’ll hit a minimum order. I told her my sense is that they will exceed it given how the Shaw .223 barrel went.

So if anyone here is definitely interested in a 6x45 lightweight port less AR barrel, speak now!

For those who have modified an aluminum BCG instead of a Solo300, what was the final weight including bolt and firing pin? For reference, the "half bcg" in the Solo300 is 4.7oz

For those doing the 6x45... is there a source to find the 95tmk bullets? Or is everyone just planning on using the 87vmax?

That said, I need someone to talk me into the 6x45 as a better alternative to my 223wylde with the 77tmk. My 16 inch barrel gives me about 2750-2775fps depending on whether it's cold or hot outside. The bullet doesn't drop below 2000fps until 450yards, and doesn't drop below 1800fps until 580 yards. With a 100 yards zero, At 450yards I get 8 inches drift in a full value 5mph wind, and 40 inches of drop.

Is the 6x45 going to push the 87 or 95gr fast enough to beat my 77tmk?
