One of the Howa 6mm ARC barreled actions is back on my radar - I was given access to private property that will allow shooting out to 1200 if I have something that reaches out. Brownells is out of stock on the 20” HB version but is taking backorders and will honor the current 10% sale. This gives me time to consider the rest of the build - time to pick a stock or chassis, and ponder optics. This may be a multiyear project.

The KRG Bravo is a nice stock for the money but I don't know if there is a good AICS pattern mag that feeds 6ARC.
What is your glass budget?

Good info on the KRG Bravo - that’s one of the ones that caught my eye.
Glass budget is unknown. I may try to use a new scope I have sitting here in the box, a Brownells MPO 5-25X56MM FFP.

That's a good optic. I think @LittleLebowski runs one.Originally Posted by HeavyDuty

For a short time I was kind of interested in the 6 ARC but now am much more interested in the 6mm MAX cartidge, but but unless the military would adopt it at some, I will be sticking to my 18” barreled AR shooting 77 OTM ammo out to 500 yds or so.
MDT for 6mm ARC mags (or BR or Valkyrie) is the easiest button.

It looks like MDT does metal and polymer magazines. Solves that problem - I would want to find a single feed sled, too.

Isn’t the Howa 6 Arc on a mini action as opposed to a short action? I don’t see a KRG Bravo or a way to feed from AI mags. I’d be happy to be wrong because that would be cool. My apprehension to the mini action was to need their proprietary mags
Oh, crap. It is indeed a Mini action - I forgot about that. I’m not sure this is practical after all.
