New Hornady 6.5PRC Cartridge
« on: December 09, 2017, 06:38:40 AM »
OK fellow gun nuts, I see hornady is releasing a new 6.5mm cartridge that runs with the 6.5x284 in term of velocity. The hornady round will require a magnum bolt face. What do you guys think? Is this round going to catch on like the 6.5 creed or will it struggle to gain acceptance?

Any advantages to the case design that would compel someone to switch from the 6.5x284 to this new round?
