It utilizes a solid piece construction from high-grade virgin copper. A proprietary cavity features interior skives. Meanwhile, the bullet hardness ensures maximum penetration and expansion. It retains 100-percent of its grain weight through ballistic gel.\r\n\r\nThe HELO bullet defeats barriers, its cavity resisting getting plugged by heavy clothing, drywall or plywood. The projectile also features a black oxide coating that reduces copper fouling. It also reduces drag for maximum velocity without over-pressuring the cartridge. The HELO hits all benchmarks of the FBI Protocol Test, according to National Police Ammunition. It penetrates a minimum of 12 inches into bare gel from a Glock 43. It also penetrated an average of 15 inches from a full size pistol, according to National Police Ammunition.\r\n\r\nIn accuracy testing, the 9mm HELO consistently held two-inch groups at 25 yards from a 4-inch duty pistol, according to National Police Ammunition.\r\n\r\nFor more information, visit alchemistammunition.com<\/a>.","post_title":"National Police Ammunition Release HELO Defense 9mm","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"helo-defense-9mm-ammunition","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 16:14:34","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 16:14:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2020\/05\/27\/helo-defense-9mm-ammunition\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":25},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"jnews_block_23"};

Hornady\u2019s Neal Emery invited me to Wyoming in February to help a local rancher with an ongoing coyote problem. I also got some trigger time with the hot new cartridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n Hornady<\/a> is on the front edge of ammo innovation. When I got to Wyoming, Emery was way more forthcoming about the 6mm ARC than he'd been at SHOT Show. During the hours we spent together when the dogs weren\u2019t cooperating, I learned that a yet unrevealed DoD entity adopted<\/a> the 6mm ARC for combat operations as a replacement for the 7.62x51mm NATO, (.308 Winchester in civilian terms). A casual observer might scratch their head as to why military units would want to field a .243 caliber battle rifle. However, closer scrutiny clarifies reasoning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 6mm ARC\u2019s parent case is the 6.5 Grendel, which takes its lineage from the .220 Russian and 7.62mm Soviet. Since Hornady was the first ammo maker to get behind the 6.5 Grendel in a big way, it was an easy transition to the new round. As an offspring of the Soviet 7.62x39, the 6mm ARC gets some of the shared battlefield cred, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By the numbers, the 6mm ARC case head measures 0.440, just 0.005 smaller than a 7.63x39 case. A loaded round\u2019s overall length is 2.26 inches; this fits nicely within a STANAG AR-15 magazine and runs flawlessly with a 6.5 Grendel follower installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Deviating from Soviet design, the ARC takes on a 30-degree shoulder angle; this is common with other American cartridges, like 6.5 Creedmoor. The ARC also has less case taper than the Soviet case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the benefits of the ARC case design is that its non-rebated rim feeds well in detachable and internal box mags. Hornady designed the cartridge and chamber, by its own admission, concurrently. It uses the same design method as the 6.5 Creedmoor; this results in excellent and consistent accuracy from one gun to another and load to load. Early testing indicates a 1:7.5 inches twist rate is ideal for stabilizing long bullets in the 6mm ARC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reviewing the ballistics comparison between the 6mm ARC and a few .308 loads, it's evident the smaller cartridge provides some advantages. The ARC firing a 108-grain ELD-Match bullet with a .536 G1 ballistic coefficient at 2,750 fps muzzle velocity stays supersonic to 1,150 yards at sea level. Fired from the same length 24-inch barrel, a .308 178-grain boat-tail hollow-point with comparable BC and a muzzle velocity of 2,600 fps goes subsonic just beyond 1,000 yards. Other 175- to 178-grain .308 bullets go subsonic at shorter ranges. Delivering a precision pill accurately more than a football field farther than a standard-issue .308 sniper round\u2014what\u2019s not to like? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ever heard the phrase \u201counces make pounds, and pounds make pain\u201d? Launching a 6mm ARC from a weapon platform that weighs a third less? Splendid. Carrying more ammo to the fight in the same loadout? Now we\u2019re talkin\u2019. Starting to see where this is going?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tuesday, 18 rifle manufacturers signed on to build 6mm ARC rifles. Since I woke up this morning, at least one more has joined the race. I keep watching the mail box for a sharp new JGS Precision<\/a> Tool 6mm ARC chamber reamer so I can build a new rifle. For even more info, please visit Hornady.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Expect more on the 6mm ARC in the upcoming 2021 edition of our sister publication, Tactical Life's Complete Reloading magazine.
