    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

    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 🙂

      Awesome! I’m looking at the savage switchback! In a chasis it would be a good combo!!!

    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

      I got my projectiles in. Haven’t started to load yet. Gonna try xbr. Hopefully they perform better. So far not impressed

    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

    • @Preying_on_predators
      @Preying_on_predators  5 месяцев назад +1

      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.

    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

    • @Preying_on_predators
      @Preying_on_predators  5 месяцев назад +1

      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.

    Is 58 gr hornady the best for coyotes on the 6mm arc

    • @Preying_on_predators
      @Preying_on_predators  5 месяцев назад +1

      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.

    • @Preying_on_predators
      @Preying_on_predators  2 месяца назад

      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.

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

    • @JohnHabbinga
      @JohnHabbinga 5 месяцев назад +1

      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.
