6mm ARC Ballistics Data

All of the data below was gathered by Grendel Hunter staff shooting the various loads in 10+ round strings through a chronograph. The data was then entered into a ballistics calculator to provide us with velocities, energy and trajectories at various ranges. For our calculations we used the following conditions:

18 reviews for 6mm ARC Barrels – Stainless

  1. Jerome (verified owner) –

    Great fit great price for a ground up build
    Bought barrel, bolt and gas tube combo

  2. Sam (verified owner) –

    Very impressed with the quality of this barrel!! The chamber looks perfect and the headspace is right on the money with two different bolts that I have on hand Faxon and Odin works both are within SAMMI specs..this things looks like it will be a tack driver with my hand loads!! I will be ringing steel at 1000+ yards soon!!

  3. Mike (verified owner) –

    Nice barrel. 3/4″ groups at 2890 fps w/ 90gr ELD-X.

  4. ugly24x7 (verified owner) –

    Purchased the 20″ about a year ago and like the accuracy of the round with these barrels so I decided I wanted to get a little more from the round and lighten up the rifle at the same time in getting the 22″ fluted barrel. As with all three purchases from Grendel Hunter I was not disappointed in the sub-MOA performance. Excellent bang for the buck as they say! The only downside I can think of is the fluting is a rough.

  5. Nick (verified owner) –

    Good shooting barrel and nice fit and finish. I decided to try this barrel due to having a 22” Wilson Combat 6.5 grendel barrel that I consistently shoot tight groups at 400 and 500 yards with. It was hard finding a 22” 6mm arc barrel. This barrel shoots close to the same. Only think I would change is the profile. This barrel is a pittle lighter profile than the Wilson CombT super sniper – which is great for hunting if carrying rifle a lengthy distance. However, I would like to have the same barrel, but slightly heavier profile, matching the Wilson Combat Super Sniper, for shooting steel at distance, and for still hunting.
