Despite the fact that AR was boringly accurate easy sub MOA the semi auto just did not go far in the way of ticking enough of my boxes.
With AR's being so popular I feel a bit weird that they have so little appeal for me. The 223 in a bolt action never did much for me either I suppose.
17 fireball bolt action big on the cool factor in my eyes.
221 Fireball still pretty cool in bolt action.
300 black out eh not so much in any configuration for me.
6.5 Grendel in the bolt action CZ 527. Yes that is what I am talking about. Real cool!
Then along comes the 6mm ARC and we get a barrel chambered in 6mm ARC for the CZ 527 & to my surprise I like it even more than the CZ 527 in 6.5 Grendel. Why I ask.
Well the lesser recoil is certainly a plus. The higher BC options that can be pushed to near ideal velocity ,weighs in the heaviest in favor of the 6mm ARC. Availability & lesser cost of 6mm projectiles certainly is a plus. Effectiveness on taking deer at distance also weighs in heavily for me.
Suppose the quick follow up shot just has not done much for me as my goal is to get the job done right with the first round & 6mm ARC gets that done in spades thus far.
So I still can not explain why Im considering kicking this 6mm ARC AR can down the road.
Build it or buy it but just do it and then if it doesnt tickle your fancy you can flip it quick and fast on here and use that money to do something else.
