The 6mmAR - More Power!
The 6mmAR (center) is bigger, and has more case capacity than both the 6 PPC and the
223 Remington. The 6mmAR is a perfect
6mm for Highpower Rifle Competition and other
types of shooting from an AR-15. The 6mmAR
cartridge shown is loaded magazine length with
a Berger 105 gr. BT bullet that has a b.c. of .527.
Other good bullets include the Berger 90 gr BT
bullet, the Berger 108 gr bullet (.546 b.c.),
the Hornady 87 gr. BTHP bullet, the Berger
105 gr. VLD bullet (single load only), and
many others.

For Highpower Rifle Competition & General Shooting: The 6mmAR is new 6mm cartridge designed to function and shoot out of an AR-15. The cartridge was designed primarily to shoot high B.C. 6mm match bullets for "across the course" highpower rifle competition at 200, 300 and 600 yards, although it has many other applications. The chambering for the cartridge was designed primarily to shoot 6mm bullets at high velocities, and to provide significant ballistics and wind drift advantages over the standard AR-15 .223 chambering. Typically, for highpower rifle competition at the 600 yard line, the heavy 105 to 108 gr. match bullets (without moly or any special loading techniques) shoot well in the range of 2750 - 2800 fps from a 26" barreled upper and provide much better downrange bullet performance than the comparable 223 long line bullets. Some shooters have reported that wih careful load development they are able to run the 105 to 108 gr bullets in the 2800 - 2850 fps range. For the "short lines", bullets in the range of 85 - 108 gr can also be used and loaded at magazine length, and also provide an advantage over the .223. For Varmint Shooting: The 6mmAR, when loaded with a 6mm Hornady 75 gr. V-Max bullet, provides a devastating varmint round that can drive the 75 gr. V-Max bullet at 3100+ fps from a 24" barreled upper. The New 6mmAR Turbo 40°Improved Cartridge Since the creation of the original 6mmAR cartridge described above, some "improved" versions of the cartridge have been made and perfected. The latest is called the 6mmAR Turbo 40° Improved. It has extra capacity and the 40 degree shoulder of Ackley type cases. Click Here to find out more about this new cartridge. |
 The 6mmAR offers exceptional accuracy out of an AR-15 platform. Shown is a perfect 100/10x MR-31 highpower competition target shot with an AR-15 chambered in the 6mmAR. In truth, since the 6mmAR is a larger and longer sibling of the 6mm PPC, its inherent accuracy as a cartridge should be no surprise. This group was shot slow prone with a sling at 100 yards.
