6mm ARC and SEALs

[alwie]

CZ, pricing certainly is a factor. I think Grendel boomed when it did because of cheap Wolf ammo. I was just comparing ammo prices, and 556/762R are at, oh, 60¢ per round, while 6ARC is at $2.00 round. Price is a big factor in the overall market.

yep, most people want to plink, so then you reload your own or need cheap plinking ammo. Right now, I reload using Barnes Varmint Grenade and AA2520 powder …  ends up about .70 per round, I think.

How are the Barnes Varmint Grenades? I shot a raccoon with one of Sierras varmint bullets and I swear it was like the raccoon swallowed a grenade. Almost nothing left of the raccoon. I love the Barnes 112gn 6mm match burners for my Unitah upper.

I use the Barnes VG for shooting steel at close range without damage to the targets. They are pretty good for that. For varmints I plan on using Nosler Ballistic Tip 70 gr Varmint bullets.
