6CM Winter Update:
The 6CM had a great 2nd year!
After shooting my first 6CM barrel to well over 4,000 rounds. I chambered a 2nd barrel and during the 2nd season with the 6CM I switched barrel manufactures from Kreiger to Bartlein, based on the recommendations of my partner,and his experiences) and the availability of barrels we had in stock. However, the quality of the barrel and the results from the 6CM didn’t change.
The, current, barrel has over 3000 rounds through it currently, and the last match fired with it yielded two national records,both are 200 yard reduced course records) 995-52X for a 1000 point XTC match and 200-17X for slow fire prone. Before that the 6CM was able to post scores at Perry where shooters claimed the 6th place, 16th place and 137th place in the overall championship. These were the only 3, to my knowledge; 6CM’s being shot in competition.
The 6CM is currently much more popular in F-Class, Tactical and “fun†matches than it is in NRA XTC competition. That is mostly because NRA XTC match rifle shooters are shooting cartridges from the AR-15 Platform.
The statistics I can prove for the 6CM are:
o Velocity over 3100 fps with the 107 and 115,my best accuracy from the 115 is about 3075 fps, but we can get over 3200 fps)
o Accuracy: under ½ MOA and most if not all rifles are under ¼ MOA.And that is with the short throat length,meaning the 115 or 107 bullet is seated beyond the neck/shoulder junction).
o Most importantly, barrel life of 4,000 rounds or more from all barrels to date.
The best comment I hear, over and over, from my customers is that the fire-forming load shoots as good or better than they had hoped the 6CM would shoot after fire formed. After fire forming it shoots even better,with more velocity).
Given the success of the 6CM the next step is the 6.5CM. We have already chambered one barrel in the 6.5CM, but have yet to shoot it. We expect great results, the same as we have gotten with the 6CM.
While the information is proprietary, it is not secrete.
Anyone can contact me with questions, requests for reamers, data or more information.
