...Video ends abruptly due to low memory but it is at the end of the segment and all data is shown!
Your doing a great job still waiting on my parts to build my 22arc
Thank you for doing this video. I started out with a red Chrony, a true POS. Your Caldwell seems to be working a heckuva lot better than my Chrony ever did. After a few years and much gnashing of teeth messing with that garbage, I bought a magnetospeed maybe 7-8 years ago. Played with a couple labradars, and was not impressed. I got a garmin last year when they announced it. No regrets so far. I hope your channel grows and helps you swing the cost of the garmin, among other things! Subscribed.
Thank you so much!! You are absolutely right as things grow the more things will come!
Keep em coming brother! Doing awesome sir!
Thank you! I appreciate that!
Thank you for the real world testing. Just got a 20 in. 22 arc
That's awesome! Glad to see more folks getting into the cartridge! And you're welcome glad to have helped!
The other connector next to the audio stuff is the one you need to use with a usb adapter in your phone. Does not work with all the phones but if you have an older android model at home you can try.
@@kriszml Yes I have an old phone I'm going to try when I get the chance. I was able to download the app to it, hopefully it will function with it.
I got 6mm ARC Savage bolt action with 22" barrel and it allows higher pressure. My handloads with 58gr vmax was doing almost 3600fps! (3594 to be exact). Very accurate too! This is with converted Hornady brass from 6.5 Grendel. Now that Starline released its own 6 ARC brass, no need to convert anymore.
Wow that's a hot rod right there... and being a 6mm thats impressive. I can't wait to get into handloading one day. So many more opportunities to try!
That first one is stupid consistent for factory ammo. They are all really good. And I hear ya on the garmin it is a superior chrono but man that price is hard to swallow. I ended up going with the magneto sporter realistically they all do the same thing the garmin is just so easy to set up.
I got impatient waiting on the barrel for my ar so I just ordered one for my bolt gun should have it this week.
Hornady uses a 24” test barrel so they should have faster numbers compared to your 20”. Don’t quote me tho I could be wrong on this specific ammo.
So happy you’re putting out these videos.
You probably should bite the bullet and get that 5$ adapter if you can get the sd’s that way if you find a good consistent lot # on a box you could set one aside for hunting or long range stuff.
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Definitely! It seems like the amount of fps loss from a 24" to a 20" is negligible. On the 62 grain 100 fps loss from what the box say's and still having it at 3200 fps is still extremely well. Especially the design of these high b.c. bullets. (Which the G1 is .395 on the 62 Grain Vmatch) I believe it's gonna hold velocity and energy very well at extended ranges. Would like to see how it compares to the .22-250 at 300 yards and see if Hornady's claim is true.
@@Steelrunner comparing the 22-250 to the 22 arc????? Sounds like an awesome video 😉
@@wildnorthadventures I happen to have a Howa .22-250... only thing is it is a 24 inch barrel. But oh well you're right that would be an awesome video! Gonna have to find a 300 yard spot to do that one day.
Thank you for doing this test, I now realize that I would never waste my money on the 22 arc that I was going to buy. 22-250 blows this thing away, as well as the 220 swift, and 223 WSSM
They are faster yes....But supposedly at 300 yards the bullet design from the .22 ARC has a more efficient design. It has a much much higher ballistic coefficient that will enable it to retain speed, and energy much further down range with less wind drift. Theoretically. If you haven't seen the difference in the bullet design I recommend checking that out. I plan to do some testing at extended ranges whenever I can get a place to do that kind of test to video it... Supposedly at 300 yards the efficiency of the high ballistic coefficient bullet from the .22 ARC it will match the .22-250's performance and exceed it beyond 300. I want to test this because that is the supposed caveat to the .22 ARC's performance. And I have a .22-250 Howa 24 inch bull barrel to run it against... Hopefully I can do that in the future soon.
I would love to see that comparison. I guess my problem is, I don't have any place to shoot past 300 yards.
@@BrianSanner-rr6lp Same here... I know there are places around where I'm at. But getting the opportunity to go there is rare. I'm gonna make it happen. Just can't say when, most likely will be in the fall or winter.
Awesome, I will be watching for it, Thanks
appreciate the chrono numbers. looks like its tracking right along with 50fps per 2"
You're welcome... And yep that's it 💯. Was thinking the same thing! Lol
This is awesome man
Thank you glad you enjoyed it!
Cool video! But dang that seems slow.. id expect those velocities from a 16" barrel 😢guys are getting 3000fps with a 6x45 an 70 grain noslers.....
Keep up the good work!
Same grains in bullet's same velocities as my 224 Valkyrie I guess it's what cool aid they want you to drink,I fell for the Valkyrie
@@tonywilfong5409 True. But I believe the .22 ARC has a higher ballistic coefficient than that of the Valkyrie and theoretically enabling the bullet to have a flatter trajectory with less wind drift... However I have yet to put that to the test, and would like to compare the results. Realistically I think either way you go you're going to get great results from either cartridge. I do like the Valkyrie myself also. 👍
I don't know if that's enough hotter to vindicate buying a 22ARC or not. It does beat out the 223/5.56 but not buy as much as I hopped it would. Is the 88grain the heaviest bullet you can shoot with the 22ARC? Nice video! BTW I wouldn't worry about dumping a bunch of money into stuff. I believe you're doing fine, just have fun and enjoy. The only thing left is putting in the time.
Thanks you or saying that i appreciate it.. I plan to do other calibers as well, just been on the journey of testing this new cartridge. And yea I see what you're saying and it does make sense. But I believe that the design of the bullet itself is the major factor with the .22 ARC while still being able to achieve those speeds... while the speed is comparable with other .22 caliber projectiles the high b.c. which on the 62 grain is a G1 of .395... that will enable it to theoretically retain speed, and energy further down range with less wind drift. I can't speak to longer distances just yet but I'm hoping to run it next to the .22-250 at 300 yards in a future video whenever I can find a suitable range to do that. But Hornady says it will match or even out perform the .22-250 @ 300 yards and outperform it beyond.. I really want to put that to the test. And yes the 88 grain is the heaviest in the factory ammo offerings but I think I've heard them talking about a 90 grain that can be handloaded.
Keep your brass man! People will pay for it lol I’m very curious myself about primer pocket life as im a reloader.
Brass life is good. I’m on #8 with starline 6.5 Grendel brass. No issues so far. I can’t speak for the hornady brass yet, they’re on their 2nd firing right now.
@@user-yj2kz3ig8t did you have to neck turn it after converting?
Seems like spicy 5.56x45 to me… like some hand loads out of a 24” barrel can probably come real close to doing the same?
Speed wise yes. But the design of this long bullet has a much much higher ballistic coefficient which will allow it to buck the wind much better, while also retaining more speed and energy further down range... I plan to do some long range tests with the 22 ARC cartridge as soon as I can find a suitable range to film it.
@@SteelrunnerI meant in reference to projectile weight. If using lead core projectiles, I’d expect similar BC, if using monolithic copper, would possibly be better due to being able to load and chamber longer projectiles sure. Which I’m guessing is where it actually beats 5.56x45, in similar weight and construction projectiles doesn’t seem like a big difference. (Meaning the ones both can fire)
wonder what kind of barrel life we should expect with this
Wondered that myself I've seen some forums say 2,500 and some say over 4,000... One thing hornady has said that it operates at normal pressures around 52,000 psi so theoretically should be comparable with .223 or .22-250... maybe right in the middle of those if I was to take a good guesstimate.
@@Steelrunner 22 250 destroys barrels but it's going 4k fps
@@dsxz definitely harder on barrels than .223 for sure... Just as long as it isn't anything like .220 Swift I think it wouldn't be too bad. Lol
Hey, do you have a PO Box for gifts?
Not yet. I need to get one set up, it had'nt really crossed my mind too much because i figured my channel would need to grow more. But wow thank you for that. I can let you know as soon as I do get one set up though. That is really cool!
Whereabouts in KY? I’m in S. IN
That's for the video, but why is the 22 arc better than the 556
The bullet design is the biggest factor. It has comparable speeds but the ballistic coefficient is much much higher. Basically he bullet is long and sleek kind of like the 6.5 creedmoor's design it's the same concept that it will retain speed and energy further down range and also buck the wind more efficiently than other standard .22 caliber rounds...it is a very long bullet design much more than .223, 22-250 or 220 swift... so basically it comes down to how effectively the bullet cuts through the wind.... One day I'm gonna video and run the .22 ARC against the .22-250 at extended ranges and see how they compare. Gotta find a range for that first.
My friends-- you must look at 22nosler-- I have one & it betters all these grain weights by 250--300fps. I don't see the point.
You sure about that? That’s not what I was seeing years ago when it came out but nonetheless, 22 nosler is a dead caliber with no support anyway. I haven’t even seen brass for it since 2020. And to go a bit further you can’t puss the long heavy bullits with the nosler either.
Well sir- yes. Afew years ago I got bitten by the AR bug. Selling my old faithful bolt guns.To replace my 22-250 I thought I'd try a cmmg 24" upper in 22nosler. Very pleased- 53gr varmegeddon-3750fps ,62gr-3400 ,70grNosler Trophy-3150. I have helped several buddies convert spare carbines with just a bbl replacement & a new mag. AWESOME ON COYOTES OUT TO 500YDS. WE are happy campers !
why does everyone try to make the viewer dizzy? keep it, and you still
I mean doing it with a camera phone by yourself is hard. It's not like i did it on purpose to annoy you... I can watch it and everyone else so far hasnt had an issue. Only you have said something. Maybe you need some motion sickness pills if something this trivial is tough for you to watch 🤷... I'm not an expert at youtube or making videos, if it upsets you the only thing I can say is sorry, and maybe it's not for you.
