BadRock- a part of Defiance machine in Montana, has a few new bolt action rifles in 6mm ARC:

Glad they did. I have my 6Arc uintah so I'm set.
One thing puzzles me, and that is, they should also be offering a 6.5 Grendel in these models.
Build the little guy but not the poppa??? C'mon man... (the MNF one, not the hidinbidin one lol!!!) !!

Agreed. I want that 6.5 over the 6 every time.

Not many calibers on their list, looks like just a few of the current hot ones.

These look to be targeted directly at the PRS Production Division and make the cut by $5. A little bit of a head scratcher at first to see ARC offered, but then again, none of the short action 6mm calibers (BR, Dasher, etc.) have much in the way of factory ammo aside from some pricey Scandinavian BR ammo, so it gives a lighter recoiling/ longer barrel life option than the Creedmoors. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these end up being practice rifles, too, especially the .223 and .308.

I just emailed them about whether they are going to offer one in 6.5 Grendel or not. Haven't heard back from them yet.

Just got an email from Bad Rock replying to a couple of questions I had. The first answer was about offering the Grendel and the second question was for some info on the barrels they use.

Hi there,



Thank you so much for reaching out to Badrock Rifles and Defiance Machine!



Did anyone from our team have a chance to reach out to you yet? We are currently only offering the calibers listed on our Badrock website, at this time - you can always check back with us in the future for a 6.5 Grendel.

We use match grade button rifled and hand lapped barrels from various suppliers (we have been using X-Caliber a lot) and we chamber in house.



Hope that this information gets you started but when additional questions come up or if you would like to place an order, just reach back out to our team and we can walk you through the process. Have a wonderful day!

So that's going to be "we wont ever be offering a grendel and our barrels suck.

You couldnt ever pay me too have any barrel that starts as a black from xcaliber again.
