Hornady's 6mm ARC. Who's all in?

[Tokarev]

Starline has announced 6 ARC brass.

My brother shoots a 6 ARC AR in PRS. I shot it at 600 and 1000 yards a week or two ago, I was impressed.

So who are the go-to companies for the following categories?

Complete Guns
Complete Uppers
Barrels
Bolts
Magazines

As I noted in another thread, Barrett has apparently discontinued their REC7 DI guns, which is bad news for us who were hoping to replicate the SOCOM 18" gun. Closest I've seen to that configuration is the San Tan Tactical gun.

Rumor has it that Knights is introducing a 6 ARC setup.

The JP bolt seems to hold up on the Grendel, and I'd probably go with a Bartlein barrel. 22" with a +2 gas system would be my preference. Good mags, and then the rest would be standard AR-15 stuff

Just saw this. Seekins makes a nice rifle: https://seekinsprecision.com/rifles-new/dmr-1.html

Here's a new cartridge that may take a pretty decent bite out of the 6 ARC market:

I don't get it. A 6mm using the mil spec bolt. They went long with the case to get more capacity and cant go over 100 gr on the projectile. They only have 24" test barrel velocities.

The criticism of Grendel/ARC is the weak bolt and junky mags. 6.8SPC/224Valk fixes those issues and increases case capacity.

This will be a slightly slower 6ARC that can't use the high BC projectiles. But you get normal mags and a normal bolt.

I don’t see a need for more than an 18” barrel in one of these. I’m looking for an enhanced SPR, not a bencchrest gun.

So will a Grendel mag work fine with 6mmARC?

For precision uppers and barrels:
* Precision Firearms (they'll build you a custom upper with lots of options, I've used them for a 6.5G)
* Craddock Precision (they'll build you an upper on one of their precision barrels, for instance: https://craddockprecision.com/18-signature-6arc/)
* Compass Lake Engineering (I've used them for 5.56, not sure if they do 6 Arc)
