So I just converted my 16” 223 to a 22 ARC and I am absolutely blown away how good this thing shoots. I bought a ballistic advantage 16” 22 ARC barrel in Black Friday for only $170 and was worried because it was the same barrel as my 223 which only shot 1.5 moa at best. I got to take the first few shots through this thing, about 35 rounds yesterday after a dove hunt. And was amazed that I was able to shoot a five shot group around .65”, the glory of modern calibers I suppose. With the high BC of the 62 grain ELD-VT and the factory v-match load being chrono’d around 3100 fps out of 16” barrels. This is all the performance I ever wanted out of this gun and more. My only complaint is the factory ammo is extremely gassy with this Turbo-K can, I think it might be time for a flowthrough can of some sort. Wish I took a picture of some of those groups.
