larrys016.5 Creedmore
While visiting a local distributors warehouse I noticed some ammo in 6.5 Creedmore. Looked like a 6.5 x 284 short. Anyone know much about this?

7mmfreakIt's one of Hornady's new developments. Based on .30 TC case. Designed to hold VLD's and still meet 2.8" OAL. It's nearly identical ballistically to the .260 Rem/6.5-284 but is not a SAAMI cartridge as of yet.

clowdisI think it was developed jointly by Hornady and Creedmoor Sports as an "across the course" match cartridge. Sort of a competitor for the 6XC. I agree that it is near the 260 Remington ballistically.
