I guess when 5.56, 6.8, or 6.5 Creedmore won't do...
I'm sure there's a point to this somewhere. A specialized, niche requirement maybe?
"Barrett, Hornady and OSS have now confirmed that they have partnered to provide the US Department of Defense with a new rifle chambered in 6mm ARC."

When 224 Valkyrie or 22 Nosler or 300 Blackout or 6.5 Grendel just wont cut it...
Hornady's promo. Turns out that it's more effective than most laser-guided bombs and 120mm APFSDS:

Probably a good cartridge, but it’s a crowded market. At least it runs an available bolt face already.
That's a pretty good guess since they have a love affair with proof. They adopted the Barrett MRAD but with proof barrels I believe.Quote:
