6ppc should be easy to form to the arc.
I saw some on the shelf, it caught my attention because it was the only thing left. Not surprising due to its newness.
I don’t see the difference.The ARC is based off the Grendel which is based off the .220 Russian so what say you?
6.5 GRENDEL!!!!!!I have a few AR-15s and an AR-308 and have added another ... well, kind of. My local crack dealer aka ex-coworker/friend sold me one of his partial builds yesterday. He has some seriously nice firearms and typically has multiple builds going on. He wanted money to put towards a TP9 that's arriving soon and a few months ago mentioned that he might sell the partial build that I show below. I paid him $750 for everything shown which is a fair price.
FALKOR supposedly suggests using a heat gun to expand the upper receiver to allow the barrel extension to fit. Also, the fit between the upper and lower is excellent. Overall a very well made upper/lower that exudes quality.
FALKOR FD-15A upper/lower receiver
Geiessle Super Dynamic Trigger
Radian Raptor-SD charging handle
Radian take-down pins
HERA pistol grip
Magpul UBR Gen2 stock
So what direction would you take this build in? I'm thinking something other than 5.56x45mm NATO, .300 Blackout and .450 Bushmaster since I have those covered already.

Ya think I'll have to get a 5.56 bc and a grendel bolt. I need to pick up another lower as well or 3.I ordered a Rainer fail safe Nib bcg (5.56) and I’m going to swap the bolt out I wanted it to be easy to clean and yeah you need to get one!!!!

That's real similar to how is like to build mine, used to get the colt round tube handguards for under $50, don't know about now tho.

think I want a threaded barrel to maybe mess with a barrel tuner, and use that vg6 gamma break I bave.
I may order a barrel tomorrow, I don't want to say were yet cuz with my luck everybody will buy one and I won't get one lol.I plan to get her cut back to 20 inches and threaded I’ll put my Ultra 7 on there and see what I can do!

But it's a 20" 416ss beadblasted medium contour. .750 rifle length. Threaded muzzle, 5r 1-7" button . Made by green mountain.
they have a small blem were they had over spray when sand blasting on the extension, but that won't hurt a thing.
There $139.00
Now I just need to find a bolt some brass and dies.
No out of stock, probably won't have any till next year if he orders the same ones agian. I'm having the worst luck building this arc.did you get the barrel?

Yup that my luck, now to find something else to spend money on lol. How does have a rem 1100 for $600.Dang sorry to hear that!
What velocity were you getting, looks like a 24" barrel .Did you ever look into the 7mm Valkyrie? I bought the barrel, bolt and dies, then had an upper put together.
What an amazing round, don't know why it's not more popular. Every group that I shot with it was sub MOA. And this was out of an AR!
Unfortunately I sold the upper, just didn't have time to shoot it as much as I wanted to. That and the round has to be made from a parent case. Which required more of my time that I didn't have.
Maybe in the future I'll look at doing another upper or bolt gun chambered for it.
