Switchback 6ARC!

**KMW1954** · 02-14-2024, 04:15 PM

Just stumbled into a almost new 110 Switchback 6ARC That I couldn't pass up. This one has the oval ejection port and a muzzle brake, along with a 20MOA rail. Looking to try this for our informal local league at 100/200/300yds.

So anyone with experience with this model? Suggestions on loads using 103-108gr bullets? Powders I have on hand are Benchmark, A2460, TAC and BL2C and a friend has a bunch of RL15 he is looking to dump. Has anyone tried any of the lighter 87-95gr bullets in this?

My best 87vmax load is with varget. 18” AR.

What is the rifle twist. My 1-8 6BR doesn't like 108's but loves 103 and 105.

OK not sure how that plays out in a 22" bolt rifle.

Can't find it listed anywhere but I believe it is a 1:7.5

Finally received the UPS tracking number on this rifle. Picked up a box of Hornady Black last night. Getting excited!

Thanks Dave, Don't know why these did this. When I sent them from my phone to the computer they shown unsided-right. Yet in my computer they show up normal. Then again when I posted them here they were again Topsy-turvy.

Tonight I took the Athlon Argos 8-34X56 off the model 10. Had to realign one of the scope rings as it would not match up with the rail spacing. Then ran 15-20 patches thru it with copper cleaner. Dam it was dirty. In the morning I will do a quick bore sighting on it and then head out to shoot it.

Got to shoot it late yesterday. Because of the late time I sighted this for the very first time from the bench at 200 yds with generic 80gr handloads. It actually turned out better than expected!

Started at the center bull and shots went from right to left. There were actually 7 shots fired there with the first off target. from there moved to 1" red dot at top of target.
