Welcome aboard BDC! Yeah those uintah's, I have one as well they are plenty good. In the 6Arc it should be good for several 1000 above the current status. They are really good shooters.
As a hint, in a purely "just in case" you might want to go to their site and order some repair parts for the bolt, since they are the only makers for it. Not that I expect you need it, but "just in case." Just put the little pack up on the shelf when you get it. I'd hate for Murphy to spoil your rig out of the blue.
You've got several options for an AR barrel. There's also the 6Arc sponsor of this forum, Sixfive arms also known as "rexus"), they have a thread section on here. They have some great barrels and values.
My uintah shoots the eldx, and a couple handloads, into <0.5"/100 yds when I'm not too shaky.
For the 103's, you can use either varget or lever powder (I've had good results with both) or others, get the hornady load data for bolt action to go by. Also they have gas gun data, which operates at a lower limit (52 ksi vs ~60ksi) due to limitations on the AR mechanism.
