The .375 Ruger cartridge functioned as the parent case for the 300 Precision Rifle Cartridge (300 PRC), which is essentially a necked-down form of the .375 Ruger. Hornady acquired SAAMI standardization for the 300 PRC in 2018. [9] [10] In 2019 C.I.P. also standardized the cartridge. [11] The 300 PRC cartridge case capacity is 6.2 ml (95.5 ...
This is a table of selected pistol/submachine gun and rifle/machine gun cartridges by common name. Data values are the highest found for the cartridge, and might not occur in the same load (e.g. the highest muzzle energy might not be in the same load as the highest muzzle velocity, since the bullet weights can differ between loads).

The 6.5mm Creedmoor designated as 6.5 Creedmoor by SAAMI, and as 6,5 Creedmoor by the C.I.P. [ 4 ] is a centerfire rifle cartridge introduced by Hornady in 2007. [ 6 ] It was developed by Hornady senior ballistics scientist Dave Emary in partnership with Dennis DeMille, the vice-president of product development at Creedmoor Sports, hence the name.
Size comparison of some 6.5 mm cartridges, left to right: .264 Winchester Magnum, 6.5×55mm Swedish, 6.5×52mm Carcano, .260 Remington, 6.5mm Creedmoor, 6.5mm Grendel The .260 Remington being a .264 caliber (6.5 mm) has certain advantages: the bullets have good sectional density (penetrating ability) and a good selection of bullet weights.
Another influence was a series of 6 mm cartridges developed for bench-rest target shooting competitions in the 1970s. The idea behind these cartridges was that a short, fat cartridge would be more "efficient" than the traditional long, narrow cartridge, as more of the powder column would be in the immediate vicinity of the primer as it detonated.
