[QUOTE="DUCKMAN11, post: 2565458, member: 122313"] 6mm in an ar15 platform? Hit the easy button and go 6arc....if you can find ammo for it. I think the 6arc really shines in a bolt action with a 24" barrel. If you want something to shoot hogs with the 6.8spc is pretty hard to beat and leaves a little more meat on the bolt. I'd say the majority of the "professional" hog hunters in Texas are switching back to 6.8spc because it just kills pigs. 7.62x39 is nice because of cheap ammo. 6.5 Grendel is kinda anemic without handloads or a longer barrel. I've used 7.62x39 and 6.5 Grendel and 5.56 in the ar15 platform and the best killer I've found is 5.56 with a 75gr hpbt going as fast as you can make it go! My buddy shoots a 6.8spc and inside 200yds it kills better than anything out of an ar15 that I've seen. I don't know why its so much more effective but it is. Just my opinion [/QUOTE]
