  1. 6 ARC for youth.

    I have no experience with the Ruger Rifle, The Howa 1500 is basically a Wetherby Vanguard, and I have had one, (Howa) for varmints for over 25 years. My granddaughter shoots it and I'm leaving it to her when I depart the loading bench. The 6MM ARC has a very slight bit more recoil than the...

  2. 6 ARC for youth.

    Good, some guy cracking of with a 338 Lupa around an untrained person who's not acclimated to noise can cause issues for some time. My daughter was a problem for a couple years after a neighbor was being an idiot with fireworks. She's good to go now! TAKE whatever time it takes and she'll do...

  3. 6 ARC for youth.

    You do know that there is a $520 solution, a Howa Varmint in 223, light in noise, 20" heavy threaded barrel, 8 lbs (so near zero recoil) all you need is a scope and a can if you want. My granddaughter shoots one that's about 25 years old, she doesn't need a can she wears ear plugs and muffs.

  4. 6 ARC for youth.

    I agree shoot suppressors all you want. Train them to use hearing protection with the can and hopefully when they will find no one else on the range wheen they shoot.

  5. 6 ARC for youth.

    I thought you were one of those, there is a large part of the next generation that's doomed! I'm afraid because I'm untrained. I'm untrained because those responsible for me didn't have any skills.

  6. 6 ARC for youth.

    Ok, some extremely sensitive individual who is not properly acclimated to the concussion of not only un suppressed firearms but a heavy concussion producing firearm. This person is on the line with a shooter shooting Barrett 50BMG with a 50 degree brake. How do you expect them to react when...

  7. 6 ARC for youth.

    How did you get to that? Where did you go to college? In fact I did quite a bit of firearm training with my children using suppressors. If you use a suppressor with supersonic ammunition then you have to use ear protection, which is greater? What you lose by not acclimating the shooter to...

  8. 6 ARC for youth.

    That certainly says something about you.

  9. 6 ARC for youth.

    While there are certainly children born with physical health issues, the main reason in my opinion that 77% of kids fail to meet minimum military standards is parenting. Not standing up to do the job of being a parent, allowing our schools to enable poor behavior. Parents enabling poor...

  10. 6 ARC for youth.

    I had the same problem with my son who has a hearing disorder and my daughter who was sensitive to sound. I started with proper hearing protection on a private range, 22 shorts, longs and long rifle in a rifle then in handguns. Then small caliber centerfire rifles and handguns. Then being...

  11. 6mm REM load development

    I have used Reloader 19 with 75 grain VMAX for years. I have never had any luck with 4350.

  12. 6mm Cartridge

    Depending on the ranges, a assuming a custom rifle and shorter shot strings, the parameters are a heavy for caliber projectiles and at least a 243 AI or a 6mm Remington with a custom build. I've been shooting a factory 6MM Remington for over 30 years but newer low drag projectiles would improve...

  13. 6 ARC for youth.

    I'll say this again, nonwonder 77% of our kids can't meet military standards.

  14. 6 ARC for youth.

    No wonder 77% of our kids can't meet military standards.

  15. 6 ARC for youth.

    If a person can't handle the distraction of gun fire they maybe shouldn't be participating in the sport. Depending on the need focusing through distractions needs to be part of the traing.

  16. 6 ARC for youth.

    When they're improperly attached, when people assume that they don't need hearing protection because they have a (silencer), a suppressor they still produces over 120 decibels. Yes the indoor pressures would still be there but unless the need is dire no one fires a weapon indoors without ear...

  17. 6 ARC for youth.

    After nearly 60 years of experience I make no judgments on suppressor use. Smoke'em if you got'em. There are Pros, Cons and Compromises. Facts are facts, from a military perspective they are a necessity. Shooting supersonic ammunition suppressed without hearing protection can damage your...

  18. Difference In Effort To Open And Close Bolt; Federal vs. Hornady Factory Loads.

    Can you hear of feel the powder shake when you shake the cartridge? Could be compressed load in thee Federal.

  19. 6 ARC for youth.

    Are aware that a medium game shooting supersonic ammunition is over 20 decibels above the harmful level? Use hearing protection when firing supersonic ammo always I have used suppressors and understand the need but prefer to not use them and opt for hearing protection in the field.

  20. 6 ARC for youth.

    I get it now!
