Savage 110 Carbon Predator

I am eagerly waiting for mine to arrive.  This will be my first 6mm ARC rifle

It has a 18" Proof Research 1:7.5 twist barrel and runs AICS magazines.  I have a MDT HNT26 carbon chassis to drop it into.  Have a few hundred factory Hornady 108gr loads to start with, lots of 6mm bullets to reload in the 58-112gr range

Welcome to the forum! Sounds like a nice rig, I like the chassis, have some mdt's on other pipes here.

Finally, the rifle arrived and I dropped it into the chassis.  Weight is 6.6lbs with the empty magazine

my 9 year old son is lovin' the new ARC

18" barrel is doing 2565 fps with factory 103gr ELDx ammo

[todbartell]

125 rounds on the barrel now, 103gr factory is now doing 2605 fps, 80gr V-Match @ 2840 fps

My son is loving the rifle, shooting it well off the Vortex tripod.  Have pushed it out to 436 yards with good results on steel and I verified a 80gr ELD-VT doesn't bounce off a coyote

Very nice looking rig.
