Anyone loading for the 6mmAR?

I've seen some very good Wilson barrels. Not that I would put them in the same category as a premium barrel day in and day out, but they really aren't bad. I think they all get luck every once in a while. Just like top shooters, if you're good, you get lucky a lot! Cooper uses Wilson and the old Winchester m70 Heavy Varminters were Wilson barrels. Those are two of the best shooting factory rifles ever made, IMO.

Good info, I didn't know that, my Cooper M21 in 204 was my most accurate factory rifle so far.

I had a Kreiger in 6mmART40 which shot better than this Wilson but not by much. These are gas guns so if I can get easy 3/4moa laying down off a Harris bipod I'm okay with that.

I wasn't happy with this 6mmFatrat Wilson at all at first but I'm good now since I tried the 95 SMK.

I do like the lower recoil of the 95's as well, plus at basically 100 fps faster than I was pushing 105's and the .5BC doesn't do too bad in the wind.

I have a fat rat with a 7twist. It’s a lot like the 6mm turbo 40.

It absolutely loved the new Sierra 110s. It does ok with the 87 hornady. Struggling to get decent groups with the 95 smk.

How long is your barrel and what velocity are those 110's going?

My previous 6mmART40 barrel was 26", I did a ladder at 330Y with it once using 115 DTACS, the high node was 2650 fps. Those shot well but it was an 8 twist barrel and I was just trying single loading for the heck of it.

It's a 26" Krieger. I'm only pushing them at 2700, which was the highest node I found (I stopped looking after that).
