6mmARC Howa Mini - hill37 - 08-20-2020
I asked a Legacy rep how to speed up the release of the 6mmARC Howa Mini. He said to have as many people as I could to email sales@legacysports.com

You can have one of two ways.
You can have done right and you can have done fast, but you can't have both.

So are they going to do an 6 ARC? Is it a matter of when, not if?
6mmARC Howa Mini - kmon - 08-20-2020
In Hornady's release about the 6mm ARC Howa was listed as one of the gun manufactures signed on to produce them

Fast and good is the American way.
6mmARC Howa Mini - grayfox - 08-20-2020
Fast and good are possible, but it will be expensive...
6mmARC Howa Mini - Gtscotty - 08-21-2020
I'll email, the higher pressure bolt gun data Hornady put out looks pretty good, a 20" Howa mini might be just the ticket.

Thanks Gt...
Now when will they make the rest of the AR data available?
We need it for 95 sst, 103 Eldx, probably a few others,
90 & 100 Eldm?
Maybe even the 87 Vmax?
Where is, repeat, where is Task Force Thirty Four? The world wonders...

That's what I'm thinking...in a B&C M40 stock.

They put out some more gas gun data as well.

After I wrote that I went searching and found it, thanks for posting!
Bull Halsey has indeed returned to the battle... finally!
time for Sierra, Nosler, Barnes and hodgdon to step up.

Here's my reply from Howa:

Put my 2 cents in with them just now.
6mmARC Howa Mini - grayfox - 08-24-2020
Just got in a reply email, same as biodsl. At least theyre hearing from us.........
6mmARC Howa Mini - Gtscotty - 08-24-2020
I also got the same response, no mention of my side request that any forthcoming 6mm ARC Minis be offered with a threaded barrel option though.
6mmARC Howa Mini - Old Bob - 08-24-2020
One more email sent to Legacy Sports asking for a 6mm ARC Howa Mini. Seems like a no-brainer for that platform. We'll see...

O yeah, forgot, I asked for the threaded barrel too.
I would reckon if they do it, they'll do the 20" HB threaded and the 22" sporter profiles.

Got my reply from Legacy Sports... "This caliber is in discussion."

I think we will see it sooner than later, they jumped on the 350 legend chambering and 450 bushmaster.
The 6mm ARC is a shoe in for the Howa mini.

Sound reasoning. Agree.
