New cartridge from Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor

I was just sniffing around a bit on the Hornady site, and see they have several new cartridges out in time for the upcoming SHOT show.

Besides the .300 and .338 RCM Ruger Compact Magnum which others have mentioned here already, there is a new long range precision rifle round, the 6.5 Creedmoor

One more for the collection, we will see if it stands the test of time

It's interesting that they compare it against Amax .308 but chose to pit it against the BTHP in .223. The 75gr. BTHP works great if you're looking for a L.R. mag-fed bullet, but wouldn't be my first choice for 1000yd performance.
