Slim, long bullets with high ballistic coefficient are ideal for energy retention at long ranges. [ 2 ] It is similar to the 6PDK which also uses a 6.2 mm bullet and a similar muzzle energy and case capacity to the 6mm AR and 6.5 Grendel, in a casing somewhat popular [ 3 ] for the AR-15, a necked-down 6.8mm Remington SPC casing.
Firing factory-loaded ammunition with bullets ranging from 90 to 129 grains (5.8 to 8.4 g), its muzzle velocity varies from 2,500 ft/s (760 m/s) with 129- and 130-grain (8.4 g) bullets to 2,900 ft/s (880 m/s) with 90 gr (5.8 g) bullets (similar in velocity to a 77-grain (5.0 g) 5.56 mm round). Depending on their case material and bullet weight ...

This is a list of firearm cartridges which have bullets of a caliber between 6 millimetres (0.236 in) and 6.99 millimetres (0.275 in). Length refers to the cartridge case length; OAL refers to the overall length of the cartridge; Measurements are in millimeters then inches, i.e. mm (in).
Thanks in part to its relatively roomy case which was designed for loading long, heavy 6.71 mm (0.264 in) bullets, and a 12.2 mm (0.480 in) diameter bolt face, it has proven more successful than other first-generation smokeless-powder military cartridges of similar bullet calibers, such as the 6×60mm US Navy, 6.5×54mm Mannlicher–Schönauer ...

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.
The components are, from left to right: the solid propellant, the primer, the bullet, and a plastic cap that serves to keep the bullet centered in the propellant block. Modern caseless ammunition typically uses a configuration in which the primer and projectile gets integrated into a solid mass of external propellant (originally nitrocellulose ...
