No, it's not Thursday, but today Paul Levy is announcing an exciting new product: the 6mm ARC cartridge from Hornady. The 6mm "Advanced Rifle Cartridge" has a 1,000-yard effective range AND it fits the standard AR-15 platform. No need to upgrade to an AR-308 sized rifle to reach that far! As a bonus, the 6mm ARC's plump, squat case profile is similar to one of the most accurate benchrest target rounds of all time, the 6mm PPC. The 6mm ARC has a 6.5mm Grendel case necked down for the smaller bullet, so it uses a 6.5 Grendel bolt and magazines. If you already have a rifle in 6.5 Grendel, you just need to swap out your barrel, and you're ready to shoot 6mm ARC. Handloaders take note: bullets that work well in the 6mm Creedmoor cartridge will also work well in 6mm ARC. At launch, Hornady is offering two factory loads: a 108 grain ELD® Match and a 105 grain Black load. Both Faxon and Ballistic Advantage are producing barrels. And 6mm ARC is a SAAMI spec cartridge, so plenty more ammo, barrels, and complete uppers will come along soon!
