My 6mm ARC build

[12Bravo20]

I figured that I would start a new thread so I didn't clutter up the thread asking what length of 6mm ARC barrel to go with. I put my Primary Arms 4-14 FFP MIL-DOT scope on just for the photo. I will be putting an Arken SH4 Gen 2 6-24 VPR MIL scope on once it arrives. I'll wait to test fire it once I get the Arken mounted.

Parts used:

Barrel; 18" Odin Works with adjustable gas block
BCG; Odin Works 6.5/6mm BCG
Muzzle brake; VG6 65BBSS
Handguard; Guntec 15" M-Lok
Upper; Aero Precision
Lower; Palmetto State Armory (already had it)
Stock; MagPul PRS Lite (carbine buffer tube)
Mags; ACS 15 round 6mm ARC magazines.



I plan on trying the Hornady 103Gr, 105Gr, and 108Gr ammo to see which one shoots best.

I was finally able to get to the range today. I am pleased with how the new build did. Th 18Gr ammo shot better than the 105Gr ammo. Both did quite well for the first time shooting the rifle and scope.

Here is the targets. I had the targets one above the other at 100 yards. The three shots in green (2 on 1 target) were my very first shots at 100 yards. The 2 shots in blue was my second set of shots and the yellow circles were my last group shots. Target on the left is 105Gr and the right target is 108Gr. After shooting the final group with 108Gr, I switched to 105Gr with out any scope adjustments. I think I'll stick with the 108Gr as far as factory ammo goes. Both groups in yellow are five shot groups.
