I am on a mission to see how many AR15 cartridges I can wildcat that will beat the famous british Grendel with Bills specified loads, so far I have 4 this year. There is a 6.8SPC ackley improved floating around too. Even my normal old 6.8 will shoot flatter than the Grendel to 500yards with some loads. I'll start working on the 6x41SPC again soon

Do you think that Ackley improved would feed through an AR15?

If it is a 30 degree yes, 40 degree no

I was just thinking as I went to lunch that any improved chamber probably wouldnt be worth it in the ar becuase of how we are limited to the overall length. Now in a bolt gun when we can load the round longer then a 6.8 with a 40 degree shoulder would be a fun little experiment... put a 20 inch 1-12 on it and you would have a fun shooter I bet.....

H, Would this be a possibility using an Xtre.e barrel? I dont know if you order the barrels with the gas port already drilled or if you profile and drill it yourself.

I think could install a .625 GB at the carbine location and cut the barrel to 11 1/2" so I could use the mid gas boss to thread for the flash hider.

Raph,
I only used a comp on it once, it was kind of loud then decided a A2 would be better to keep it short although a Dpms Panther may work better for the flash. I have it loaded with hot 115gr Hornadys and it handles just fine and the fireball from the H335 will roast anyone I miss...or cauterise the wound.[/quote]
