6 ARC with N130 and L-32

[Loki2]

Has anyone used N130 or L-32 powder in a 6ARC ?

What bullet weight are you wanting to use? Bolt rifle or Gas? WD

+1 to WyldWD …. What bullet? Pretty fast burning unless you re talking >75 gr. type bullets.

I was thinking about 105 grain bullets in a bolt gun

I’ve shot some N-133 and Berger 68’s out of a 7-1/2 twist, it was ok a couple groups under 1/2”.
I went Back to the 90’s for the time being, Gas gun is hard on the brass finding accuracy.
I’ve shot 107 sierra’s with good results.

LT32 is great with 68s in several 6 Grendel barrels for me. Good enough to win a Nationals with. 6 Grendel and 6 ARC are very similar...nearly identical. I like Lapua brass, which to date, is not available for the ARC. IME, it still holds up better than any other brass out there. If an AR, you can get by with lesser quality brass as the rifle's max pressures do not task good brass much. A good bolt gun is a different story, entirely.

Both mentioned powders are too fast for heavy projectiles in it, IME. They can shoot, just less than ideal.

My comment on bullet weights should have been <75 gr. (Less than) Dang fat fingers !
