Perhaps you are thinking I am implying I prefer less case capacity. Not exactly my preference, though tolerable.

Proper neck placement on the shank of the longer ogive bullet profile, is the goal that is being achieved from my perspective w the shorter 6mm ARC cartridge.

If we were not trying to fit the cartridge into the shorter AR magazine, or a mini action mag in the case of my CZ 527, the benefit of the set back shoulder would not exist.


I'd consider taking that middle cartridge and just trimming about 80 thousandths off the case mouth if I was worried about that (which I agree might become an issue with some bullets)...but I don't give a rat's ass about BC unless its a case of giving up a ridiculous amount of zip. My preferences for a heavier bullet kinda keep me out of the pingpong ball end of the spectrum for the most part, regardless. Whatever the case, I think the Grendel case is just a bit longer in the neck and shorter in the body than ideal.

Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
