    You have a winner. Now Hornady needs to steal it and call it a .22 arc. Fun as always to see you shine behind the trigger.

      It is an obvious extension of their 6ARC case design. Once they have the time to run new brass, I am sure we will see a 22 version.

The only true wildcat I have anymore is a 357/454 casull in a winchester 94 trapper, and a Freedom Arms 357/454 casull 7.5 in barrel. This clambering reminds me of the 22 cheetah.

    Great vid and cartridge Kenny! Love my 6 ARC gasser but man, a gasser in 22 DPC would be fantastic for PRS. (That's what all my long range shooting is geared towards.) 6 ARC is so recoil friendly in a gasser (especially one that weighs 17 lbs) but that DPC looked like it hardly moved at all! Seems like light bolt impulse. Nice! Very impressed.

    • @EagleEyeShooting
      @EagleEyeShooting  2 роки тому

      Much appreciated! Yes thats one of the biggest advantages I'm noticing also, this cartridge does have a much lighter recoil impulse than 6 ARC 105's. However, if you load 6 ARC with 95gr Bergers. Its very close to the same recoil

I should have 1000yds setup by the time spring gets here. I would like something with a little more punch than the 5.56. I have considered the Valkyrie, 6 ARC, and 6.5 Grendel. If I go with .22 cal. I would like to use a 90 gr. bullet. Do you have any thoughts?

      This 22 DPC cartridge will push a 77gr bullet over 3100 and give better long range performance over a 90gr. However, I've built a few 22 GT LR308 rifles that perform very well with the 90gr. Slightly better than the 22 DPC

      Im able to push the same projectiles the 22-250 uses just shy of 22-250 velocities in a smaller 22" semi auto plateform. 53gr V-Max push 3570 ish FPS outta this AR15 and 3700 out of the bolt gun

      The 8 twist seems to be an all around performer. Accuracy hovers around 1/2" in the AR15. Thats good enough for me

  • @texpatriot8462
    @texpatriot8462 2 роки тому

    To be a true fair comparison, you would need to fire a lighter bullet in the 6ARC. That the way velocities would be more comparable. A 90 grain ELD-X should do 3100 fps in a bolt gun.

    • @EagleEyeShooting
      @EagleEyeShooting  2 роки тому +1

      I see your point but heres reality.. 95gr VLD's only hit 3030-3050 fps in the accuracy node. If you run the ballistics with that vs a 105gr Berger Hybrid at 2930 FPS. They are identical. That was what was used in this test. BC efficiency plays a bigger factor. The key is to get both high

      22 DPC bolt is light and has the wrong chassis on it. Only weighs 12.8 lbs in that configuration.

      Heavier plateform in a LR308... more recoil. 22-250 can't be loaded with heavy grain projectiles and fit mag length.

      @Eagle Eye Shooting I can't tell the deference between my 223 in an ar 15 and the 22-250 in ar-10. There is plenty of room in the magazine for a longer heavy bullet.

    • @EagleEyeShooting
      @EagleEyeShooting  Рік тому

      Thats simply false. You cannot be mag length with a 80gr or 88gr ELD with a 22-250 optimized for a AR10 platform. As a manufacturer of precision rifles, I've build many fast twist 22-250's. Barrel life is substantially less compared to a shorter cartridge like the 22 DPC
