I’d rather have a .22 Arc, of course, that was just a re-barrel away. I get that this is the AR section, but what platforms are rumored to be forthcoming in .22 Arc?

I do understand one is geared to a AR but what about through a bolt gun Last edited by ldholton; 10/21/23.

The PPC is a sedate design,fraught with taper in all the wrong places and a Giraffe neck,for not. The ARC is mechanically muchly fhuqking SUPERIOR. Hint. Pardon my shooting it all and then some. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!................. Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains. Nothing more, nothing less.

I like my 6 arc even though I haven't got it to shoot as well as my grendel yet. I've got the 6 down to about .75" with 108s but need to try a few more things. A 22 arc with 88s sounds like a good thing. Bb
