After the .30-caliber obsession started dissipating, Americans âdiscoveredâ what many European target shooters had known for decades: A 6.5mm boat-tail spitzer of around 140 grains drifts similarly to a 190-grain .30-caliber boat-tail spitzer started at the same velocity â but the lighter bullet results in lighter recoil, allowing shooters to avoid flinching. 0000255375 00000 n 0000076487 00000 n H��W�n�}�W�#�������0��%!�eIh�� �^�x%9������g8�4�E��Ѱ���T�9U��Ζ���g��6|�������?\?�(���u+�O���3����2��JN���J������b�Mi���X(S�b��4A���uq���^ދE�W�B�R���A�����BU���^�/$�= 0000162899 00000 n The 6mm Creedmoor is an ideal cartridge for engaging targets out to 1300 yards.

However, most American target shooters remained convinced that .30-caliber cartridges from the .30-06 up were needed for shooting at 1,000-yard targets. 0000078839 00000 n According to various sources, at least two shooters had a major hand in getting Hornady to produce the 6mm Creedmoor. Quite a few target shooters tried the .243 Winchester during the rush to smaller calibers, including David Tubb, 11-time national High Power champion. 0000215922 00000 n 0000256028 00000 n 0000007963 00000 n 0000276056 00000 n While waiting for them, I performed a âliterature searchâ of published 6mm Creedmoor data and found plenty, not just from Hornady but from Hodgdon, Sierra and Speer. �����u�1���v��{�¯��DF�k\�n+�we��a��pA�T7! ��tq}�'�π).Q�͖�kל�\��$ .wv���I�u�'�}�Ó���I6�oʸ�'������=�R��j�,��nԎL9?����C��`�&!�Q8_g �`bS҇T�(�{Ԋ�"yB�qMZ��Te��_ե� ��e���*X��R���p!���%~�"��nv�bL�z(mH��J�f3YzO�����'Z�Q�����QW;���nȊ�$4����Lx�OS�i��bh3lBAT�o����nk��^Fx�b�. 6mm Creedmoor 108 gr ELD® Match Item #81391 | 20/Box We carefully select every component to ensure uniformity, then load to exacting specifications to provide pinpoint accuracy. 0000269250 00000 n 0000255256 00000 n 0000216547 00000 n The companyâs Model 722 happened to have a magazine 2.85 inches long, give or take a couple hundredths. This finally occurred as they realized bullet weight was not the big factor in wind drift, but ballistic coefficient (BC). 0000008466 00000 n 0000257581 00000 n The 6mm CM is basically a necked down version of the 6.5 Creedmoor. John bought the Hornady brass used for testing at a local sporting goods store, one sign of the 6mm Creedmoorâs popularity. 0000258246 00000 n 0000008866 00000 n 0000012172 00000 n 0000263448 00000 n 0000080136 00000 n 0000277968 00000 n The 6mm Creedmoor recoils exactly like a.243 Winchester when shot off a benchrest, and it offers nearly exact ballistics. 0000023821 00000 n Some will, partly because long-range target shooting drives much of the recent rifle market, even among hunters, many of whom simply must have the latest advances in rifles, cartridges and scopes. Whether through luck or design, the inside length of the magazine on this particular Predator measures 2.870 inches; most other bullets ended up seated to an overall length of 2.600 to 2.800 inches. 0000277040 00000 n 0000273051 00000 n The 6mm Creedmoor is a relatively new cartridge, but has caught fire in the long range shooting world – and for good reason! Water capacity of the 6mm Creedmoor (left) was slightly less than that of the .243 Winchester (right) with a Berger 105-grain VLD seated, though it operates at a higher pressure. It took far longer for Americaâs long-range target shooters to come to the same basic conclusion about larger .30-caliber cartridges. One of the features that makes it popular in PRS style matches will likely also add to its popularity in the hunting field and as a chambering for a Scout rifle . After running all the necks over the expander ball in the Redding sizing die, case length measured slightly less than the maximum 1.920 inches listed by Hornady, so I chamfered all the case mouths. 0000273509 00000 n H�\��n�PD�|�]&�}�c Y�+���x�0\;H1 ����EEi,��Uբ�n�C�N.�9��1L��v�n�}��;�K�%Y�>����Z I��������'e��_��m�i����?�&�mwqO��g��������V� ���[5|����s�ˡ�����k�=��1�����}nCU���.!

Eventually, however, they realized the .308 kicked too much for consistently fine shooting, even in rifles weighing more than 10 pounds. 0000376105 00000 n Redding dies resulted in very concentrically seated bullets. 0000260092 00000 n The short-action 700 essentially standardized the length of the modern short bolt-action magazine at 2.85 inches. 0000254328 00000 n 0000265141 00000 n 0000261779 00000 n The Eagle Eye 6.5 Creedmoor shoots a 130gr hybrid projectile with a.295 G7 at 2,960fps from an average 26" barrel. In fact, by mid-2018 far more pressure-tested data existed for the 6mm Creedmoor than many other recently introduced factory rounds, probably due to its popularity as a wildcat. hޔ�KhQ��;�LM&v�6I5)I�E�M�M|�hт�Y�U(lZ�GE�n��B�D�Q\�v!_0�����)�E-.�Q 0000253934 00000 n 0000214310 00000 n The 4-16x 44mm Zeiss Conquest scope used on the Ruger test rifle provided plenty of precision when shooting groups. Hornady started producing 6mm Creedmoor ammunition and cases in 2017. The 6 mm Creedmoor cartridge has become a favorite for serious competitive shooters looking to get an advantage on ease of target aquisition and retention thanks to less recoil.

Each cartridge is loaded with either Hornady ® A-MAX ® bullets, our high-performance boattail hollow points, or the new, radically superior ELD ® Match bullets. 0000271131 00000 n In the absence of a muzzle brake, one advantage of the lower recoil is that for some it can be easier to spot trace and return to target quicker. 0000079102 00000 n However, the .243 Winchester still appears in the list of chamberings for the RAR, and just about every other bolt-action rifle made on Earth â and will for a very long time. A comparison of three popular long range shooting cartridges. Yet many target shooters proved even pickier, soon âdiscoveringâ 6mm cartridges recoil even less than 6.5mm cartridges due to lighter bullets. Consequently, 6.5mm wildcats with slightly shorter cases were designed to fit perfectly in 2.85-inch magazines. 0000163514 00000 n The 6mm Creedmoor actually began gaining popularity not in the precision rifle match world, where it is probably best appreciated now, but in hunting done in … 0000371769 00000 n 0000078964 00000 n 0000214740 00000 n 0000024735 00000 n The 6mm ARC’s parent case is the 6.5 Grendel, which takes its lineage from the.220 Russian and 7.62mm Soviet. Both the 6mm Creedmoor and 6.5 Creedmoor are light recoiling cartridge that are easy to shoot; especially for extended periods of time.

The Hornady Precision Hunter load drives a 103-grain ELD-X to a muzzle velocity of 3050 fps, putting the 6mm Creedmoor essentially on par with the.243 Winchester, but it’s the ability to properly seat the longer bullets with the best ballistic coefficients that gives the 6mm Creedmoor the edge out beyond 500 yards. One example is the Ruger Precision Rifle, essentially a target version of the Ruger American Rifle, often purchased by hunters looking for long-range performance. The standard rifling twist for 6mm Creedmoor match rifles is 1 turn in 8". *:� It shot extremely well, even with Winchester hunting ammunition, but today Ruger no longer lists the .243 in the Precision Rifle, instead chambering the 6mm Creedmoor.
