Finally I have a reason to order a copy...

Some will ask about it being a straight pull, but without neutering the performance primary extraction is very hard.

Got a copy in the UK.
Good write up on the 6ARC out of an 11.5" barrel and how they found it to be superior to .308 out of an 18" barrel.

That’s a bold claim, surely...

I think it's to do with the ARC losing less speed and is actually faster than the 175gn 308 from about 700-1000yds.

Lets not about energy though :)

The article only uses the come-ups and bullet speed to compare the 108gn ELD to the 175gn SMK.

I am serious...

Although made a typo, it was a 20" barrel.

Still 900 yards before trans-sonic out of a 11.5" barrel.
