Just wanted to share some initial info I gathered on my recent 6 ARC build (Tikk T3X, posted about it under the bolt action section).
Tikka T3X bolt action
Garmin Xero Chronograph
Starline 6mm ARC brass
Hornady 108 ELDM
Hodgdon H4895
- 25.0 H4895: 2447.4

- 26.0 H4895: 2560.8
- 26.5 H4895: 2603.8
- 27.0 H4895: 2653.0
I also chronographed five shots of the Hornady 108 ELDM Match ammo:
- Factory ammo: 2668, 2625, 2655, 2638, 2636.
- Avg 2644
- ES 43
I’ve sent the barrel off to be throated (I’ll post more as to why on the rifle build thread), so more info to come. The thread title shows what info I plan to collect & post.
I shoot the 6mm ARC 105 gr. BTHP using 26.8 grains of RL-15 ==> 2607 fps and sub-MOA groups at 100 yards. I use a bolt Action Savage Axis II w/22" barrel. COAL=2.220"
