16” 6.5 Creedmoor barrel worth it?

What BCG problems have you heard of with the 6mm ARC?

Sheared lugs, broken extractors and all the other fun stuff trying to trim off the meat to accept 220 Russian bases into an AR bolt.

A 16" 6.5 Creedmoor barrel significantly out-performs a 20" .308 barrel.
I have been shooting "short" 6.5 barrels for about 4 years now. I think that they shine in the 16" area and over 20".
All depends on your application.

Heck yeah!! Your input means a lot.

Pretty much sums up what I’ve been reading. I’m sure they’ll figure it out, especially with big names like Geissele putting their weight behind it.
