A++. Shooting 1" 10 shot groups with varger and 108 eldm. I lost count how many critters my boy has killed with it. I keep wanting to build another but man have they jacked the price on this unit.

5/8 x 24
I would like to confirm that the thread pitch for the muzzle threads are actually 5/8 x 24. I recently recieved my barreled action and the 1/2 x 28 hun adapter would not fit. I Had to use my 5/8 x 24 to mount my suppressor.

A great foundation for a precision rifle
I installed this 6mm ARC carbon barreled action into a JTAC Industries Elf Owl chassis. The combo of the 20” very lightweight barrel and the Elf Owl makes for an extremely fun and light weight precision rifle. With the Elf Owl stock pushed in the rifle can fit inside a long backpack type range bag and weighs almost nothing. The lighter weight is great with the 6 ARC since there is almost no recoil. With a suppressor it’s like firing a BB gun. In terms of accuracy, I fired some Hornady match through it and it was grouping between 0.75 and 1 inch. It’s a really well made rifle for not a huge amount of cash. Can’t wait to try out some reloads in it.
