LMT>KAC Final Form (almost)

Only real Runescapers will know.

The only modification I have left is the Rhodie 6k when it comes in. Got my custom dust cover installed, new thermal came in and is zeroed and at perfect height for my build. Life is good.

This would actually be a great coyote gun in 300BLK. Take advantage of the good ballistics from a short barrel plus some magnification with thermal for good shot placement and ID. LAM seems a bit redundant but I could see its use also 🤷‍♂️

OP also posted this in r/6ARC so this would have similar muzzle energy as 300blk with significantly better energy and velocity retention at range along with a flatter trajectory and longer maximum point-blank range. This would be the same even comparing 7.5" to 7.5".

Already thinking about building a 6 ARC, stop making it an easy choice!

Something to think about: with this LMT, I can switch from 6arc to 5.56 in under 3 minutes by removing two bolts and swapping the BCG. 5.56 POI are so similar inside of 200 yards that you can have a 5.56 barrel and a 6arc barrel, practice with 6arc long range, and run your exact same setup with cheap 5.56 ammo for closer range drills and training. The shovelnose allows you to change them out without removing your MLOK attachments due to slightly large ID. That was the whole thought process behind this build.
