Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.Annnounced by Hornady in 2016, the 6mm Creedmoor was wildcatted by Outdoor Life’s John Snow, the 6mm Creedmoor, as its name implies, is created by simply necking down the 6.5mm Creedmoor case to take a 6mm (.243-inch) bullet. Actual velocity is very similar to the long-popular .243 Winchester. The advantage is offers is that, with its shorter case, it does a bit better with the longer aerodynamic bullets that are winning matches–and that’s its intent and primary niche, serious long-range competition with long, low-drag bullets that get past the finish line with very mild recoil. As a crossover varmint/deer cartridge it offers no real advantage over the tried-and-true .243, but it’s just as good in those roles, andin the right hands (and the right barrels) might win a few more matches. — Craig Boddington
