1200 Yards with a Henry Supreme in 6 ARC

I bought a converted Henry Supreme in 6 ARC and honestly didn’t expect to like it this much.

Shot it to 1200 yards this weekend. Wicked gun.

Originally I was debating between 5.56 and .300 Blackout, but after shooting the 6 ARC setup I kind of get why people are so obsessed with this cartridge now. Recoil is light, stays flatter than expected, and it absolutely smacks at distance. Anyone else shooting distance with these? 

What surprised me most is how well the lever platform worked with 6 ARC, some voodo magic. The unit is from LINE49 Rifle, they’re doing barrel conversion kits for the Henry Supreme platform and apparently a lot of guys are going multiple calibers instead of buying separate rifles.

They offer the barrel swap/install - from what I’ve heard the first changeover can be a bit of a btch if you haven’t done one before and I wasn’t interested in trying it.

Now I’m sitting here wondering if I still need a .300BLK… or if 6 ARC already ruined everything else for me. Has anyone shot the .300BLK suppressed, what are your thoughts?
