ULUL 223 Wylde and 6x45 portless barrel thread

[PistolPete]

Can you verify that your 2.6" with calipers? I had 2.724" but i don't have the BCA disassembled to measure right now. And, can you or anyone verify that the thinnest part of the barrel over the chamber is about .983"?
I have a revised drawing that's much less embarrassing almost complete and it should actually be lighter than the BCA, because the Shaw actually tapers down to .490", and so I'm using that since they have been shown to be trustworthy.
The measurements around the chamber remove a lot of meat, so weight, but we don't want to go below what we've already tested to be safe in that area (BCA dimensions).

I can get maybe 2.650" at the most for the length from base to the 0.500" measurement, but mine is no more than that.

Thanks, Hopefully @hereinaz got that correction. Anyone else have an unattached BCA barrel lying around that they could measure for 1 second validation? I'd just pull mine if I hadn't bedded it...

Just got alert from UPS Shaw barrel will be here Friday

 

[Matthausarchery]

@hereinaz any updates on this?

 

[hereinaz]

If everything sorts out, the order will go in next week and I'll start presale at that time.

I hadn't checked in on this thread for a while. I just changed my vote... and decided I wanted to go with the 6 x 45... Was I too late to get my request in?

Not too late.

Just for clarification (I'm a little lost as usual), which order is going in and what's the price(s)?

I assume the Shaw 6x45 @ ~ $200 (?). You mentioned still looking into cheaper barrels, but not sure this is them.

Will any 6mm arc barrel be made?

 

[C Bow]

I am still in for a shaw 6x45

 

[hereinaz]

I am working out quantity and price with the maker. As for cartridges, I wanted to do 22 arc and 6 ARC but was not able to make the numbers work this time.

I will guarantee 1 moa. This OEM guarantees precision barrels. We have talked about that a lot.

The profile will be as small as we can get them, smaller than Shaw and Bear Creek.

It won’t be Shaw.

Sounds great! If the price is back closer to the original, I'll be back in on the 223 and probably a 6x45 as well.

22 ARC and 6 ARC might not be viable for sales numbers unless the BCA really takes off. If it does though, I bet there'd be a lot of interest eventually.

Thanks for all you work on this!

That’s my thoughts about the ARC cartridges, the bolt action makes it viable.
