Ordered a 6mm complete upper from Bear Creek last night, I don't reload yet but was torn between it and the 22 arc. May end up with the 22 later on. I have always loved the accuracy of the 243 and even though the 6mm is lower velocity the accuracy should be good. Anybody have 1?
 
Not a bear creek but have been shooting the round for some months now. It has quickly became one that I really enjoy. Just a lot of bullet availability for the reloader and a powder sipper. I've shot hogs anywhere from 20 yards to 300 so far and it has performed well. I'm currently shooting the 90 gr Sierra tipped gamekings and waiting on hogs to test the 95 SST on. The 108 ELD-M factory load works well on hogs as well.
 
I built a ballistic advantage 6 arc. I have more testing to do with it, but it is plenty accurate. I have a good load worked up with 100 grain interlocks and converted lapua brass. Without looking at my book thinking I was using near max aa2520. Had also ran imr4895, even though at that time there was no data for it, and found a good load for it. Planned on trying 103 eldx and 95 grain bergers but have not yet. I load for 243 for my wife and the girls, so I keep a good stock of 6mm bullets.

I haven't bit on the 22 arc yet, but likely eventually will.
