The Hornady 86287 unprimed brass cases deliver the precision foundation needed for consistent 6mm ARC ammunition performance. This rifle brass features Hornady's advanced manufacturing processes that ensure uniform wall thickness and optimal case capacity for maximum accuracy potential.
What Makes This Different
Hornady brass undergoes a proprietary annealing process that creates consistent neck tension and extends case life beyond standard manufacturing methods. The 6mm ARC cartridge design optimizes performance in both bolt-action and semi-automatic platforms, delivering superior ballistic coefficients compared to traditional cartridges. Each case maintains tight dimensional tolerances that contribute to sub-MOA accuracy potential when properly loaded.
Key Features
- Uniform wall thickness throughout case body for consistent powder capacity
- Proprietary annealing process extends case life up to 8-10 reloads
- Optimized flash hole diameter for consistent ignition
- Compatible with standard .264 diameter bullets (6mm)
- Precise headstamp marking for easy identification
- Ready-to-load unprimed construction saves preparation time
- 50-count packaging provides sufficient quantity for load development
The 6mm ARC cartridge excels in precision rifle applications, delivering flat trajectories and minimal wind drift at extended ranges. This brass supports match-grade accuracy in competition shooting while maintaining the versatility needed for hunting applications. The cartridge's efficient powder burn characteristics work effectively in barrels from 18 to 24 inches, making it suitable for both compact and full-length rifle configurations.
