I have two savage 110 switchback "sportsman's warehouse exclusive" 22" target barreled 6mm arc extremely accurate for a 620$ bolt gun. Getting 3500fps with 65 grain vmax xterm powder. Just an inexpensive option. Unless you drop it in a mdt hunt26 chassis 🙂
I’ve tried one ladder test with the 80 VT so far. 22” bolt 6 arc. TAC powder. 0.020 off and the accuracy results were not great. Actually the worst of any bullet I’ve tried in that rifle. I’ll try another powder and like to see more results on coyotes. If they don’t perform well under 3,000 fps there’s nothing long range about em. By the time you get out to 3-400 yards you will be below that velocity even in hotrod 6 mil cartridges
Interesting, I was excited to run these. I’m curious if the jackets are a little thicker like you suspect. I have never had an issue with my 223 55 grain vmax
The jacket is a little thicker from what i heard on their podcast. If you’re running a bolt gun (can hand load to higher PSI) or 6 creed i think these will be great.
I absolutely love them. It’s my go to load. For my hunting style and application i haven’t found a better option. Not saying there isn’t any better options but for me this is what i go with. I am working on 70 gr Blitzking and 70 gr Nosler BT loads now. Will report how those do in a later video.
No sir. Will have to be 6mm arc specific ammo. You can handload the 6mm/243 58 gr Vmax. If you dont reload, Druid hill armory has 58 gr Vmax that are a solid load. And pretty much identical to my hand loads.
@@brianlutz8593 would work great! I’m running 58 Vmax in the ar and howa mini. Both guns are shooting half MOA and 3300 fps. There is a 6 arc reloading group on FB has a lot of good info and I’ve posted my results there. Maybe i need to do an update video
If you run a 6 ARC in a bolt gun, go with an 18” barrel and you can take advantage of the higher pressure hand loads. I love my 6 arc bolt rifles, but if you want something with a longer barrel and more speed, get 6 Creedmoor. You can get Peterson or Lapua brass that use small rifle primers so you don’t have to beg grandpa for large rifle primers.
I wish I could get a 6mm eldvt in the 60 maybe 70gr range!! Cool idea but your right its a little to heavy still for the smaller 6mm cartridges... IMO
@@sethperry1323 i agree. 6mm 60-70 VT would be slick

Awesome! I’m looking at the savage switchback! In a chasis it would be a good combo!!!
@@Preying_on_predators I put m Switchback in a Oryx Chassis and love it!! AND yes it's a very accurate rifle..

I got my projectiles in. Haven’t started to load yet. Gonna try xbr. Hopefully they perform better. So far not impressed
There is only one A in Hornady.
interesting thanks
i was (and still am) very excited about the eld-vt and v match but the 6mm seemed underwhelming compared to 6.5 and 22
I think they will do well in a 6 creed or a bolt 6 arc where you can take advantage of the higher PSI and push them faster.

I will be running sgt of arms AR

Bullet for big boy cartridges.
Marketing cool-aid.
Is 58 gr hornady the best for coyotes on the 6mm arc

Is druid hill a legit company @Preying_on_predators
@@brianlutz8593 yes sir. I have bought several boxes of ammo from
Them before i started reloading
@Preying_on_predators how do you think the 58gr would preform in a 6 arc 20" barrel 1:7 twist

Bolt gun!!!!!
These would definitely be better in a bolt gun to take advantage of the extra PSI and squeeze out more velocity
