6ARC or 6.5 Grendel?

Not about chasing records but getting the best rifle for your money and using that money smart. He is already planning a custom set up with a good action in a few months. That Howa money would be better spent on a barrel for that set up.

Still it is all relative. My whole point was that I built a low cost rifle and it has done very well. At the same time spending another $2k to $3k on a custom rifle was not going to improve my scores. Spending money does not always bring success.

Besides I seen no harm in purchasing an entry level item just to get a feel for it. Who knows, he may have quickly learned that the ARC/Grendel wasn't what he was looking for either. In my case I spent nearly a year before deciding on building an ARC over a 6BR.

Then, even now I get people telling me a 6ARC bolt rifle is a waste of time and money.
