[QUOTE="detoff, post: 2481529, member: 120697"] I just started playing with the ARC in the past month or so. I only have 25 rounds through mine for barrel break in and such. I couldn't find any ammo locally at first so I ended up resizing some grendel brass. I used what I had on hand so my initial loads are 80gr sierra blitz over middle of the road amount AA2460 (27.9gr). I used Hornady's load data since Hodgdon doesn't list the 2460 for the 80gr. I forgot my chronograph when I took it out, so I don't yet have velocities, but for a tossed together load the last 5 rounds I shot went 3/4" You should easily get the velocities you're after, especially in a bolt action. I'm not familiar with the Uintah's, but the bolt on the website seems to have plenty of meat on it. One thing, and maybe it's just a typo, but I'm sure the ARC uses small rifle primers. The only way it would use large rifle is if you were using resized 7.62x39 brass. [/QUOTE]
