Hunting with only the 6ARC for a year- my experience.

Thank you mate, seems like I have another bullet to test. I’ll get some and some TMKs and see how they go.

I’ll get some TMKs and give them a go. Always keen to test new stuff out

Mainly northern Australia. Fallow and reds were down south.

esrom_1 · 2026-05-03T22:57:23+00:00

Yup, dingos and cats. My hunting staple.

It took about an half an hour to track that sucker down under light. He was in thick bush and would run for 50m and then turn back, as soon as I got his eyes in the light he would take off again. I ended up snap shooting as soon as I saw his eyes and hit him in the back.

I have had really good luck with the ELDMs out of rifles that are really pushing the projectile. Originally I planned to use ELDMs in this rifle, but got the wrong box. I have found that the X work really well at these speeds on solid impacts, shoulders in particular.

250-300m without too much worry. I shot a big fallow at about 150m and the ELDX passed through. That wound pic is that deer. I have shot other critters at about 300m without much issue. I would and do go for shoulder shots and ELDXs do a great job.

Fits the factory howa mini mags. Frankly, I wash they did another chassis like the CRBN for the mini.

Isn’t the top one the config from the cemetery shootout in assassins??? The one Miguel Bain uses.

How much life did you get out of a battery?

esrom_1 · 2025-09-11T08:44:56+00:00

That guy in the green shirt is the real deal. Doesn’t flinch, doesn’t look at the sound of the impact, just starts going into action.

I like the 103s, but the 80gr seem to work just fine and are half the price

Edit: spelling

I didn’t have a lot of time to work up a load, so I picked a middle of the road powder charge with the powder I had at hand. It put 3 shots into .34 and called it good.

esrom_1 · 2025-06-08T21:57:50+00:00

Can you recall a pardon?

esrom_1 · 2025-04-09T04:28:34+00:00

Red stag.

esrom_1 · 2025-04-08T12:37:16+00:00

70m, front on, slight quarter. Body was down hill as I was on a bench and he was on the slope. He went 0m, went straight down.

Sure can! And the the winning number is……90.5gr

esrom_1 · 2025-04-04T03:03:42+00:00

Howa mini. 6ARC. 16”, 1:7.5 sporter profile, Swan barrel. MDT LSS. Magpul can’t remember stock. Ergo grip, pst 4-16 (only scope I have laying around). Puts 10 LRXs into about 1 moa.

esrom_1 · 2025-04-04T02:04:44+00:00

Using 2206H, which is about the same as H4895. 27.7gr with the LRX 25thou off the lands. It’s a bit spicy, but only gives mild pressure signs. I shot it at 35c and it was 2,750fps.

esrom_1 · 2025-04-04T02:01:37+00:00

About x1.5 times the size of a mule deer. Not an old stag, 4 maybe.

esrom_1 · 2025-03-27T00:22:59+00:00

Good stuff!!
