6ARC, LeveRevolution

[kmw1954]

For months I have been researching and reading every tidbit I can find on reloading the 6ARC and all I kept hearing is use LeveRevolution. Well I finally possess some and started working with it. It has the look and consistency of Ramshot TAC. Anyways I spent Sunday during the rain to look back on this subject. I hit all the forums I follow and even scoured Youtube. Found lots of comments and suggestion but no real world work-ups. The one video I did find was for a bolt rifle and was comparing LVR to Varget and this fellow quit his load about .5gr higher than my starting load because he was seeing pressure signs. As I recall he was at about 29.0grs while Hornady load data for bolt rifles starts at 27.1 with a max of 30.8gr for a 105gr bullet. I am starting at 28.5gr with a 105gr bullet which Hornady states should produce 2600fps.

Anxious to see what happens!

Are you running a bolt or semi? I was interested in the cz rifles in 6arc and 6.5 Grendel to run the heavier loads. The white oak article kinda spooked me from wanting to run that odd sized bolt in a bcg.

The rifle is a Savage 110 Switchback bolt with a 22" Light Varmint barrel. picked it up used on Gun Broker. That is one of the comments I keep hearing is about the bolt head off size. Guess everyone is hooked on the 308 bolt head.
