Which is what makes it a great varmint cartridge for lighter bullets, at higher speeds, and better point blank range, especially at night.
Plus, load them to 2.280" OAL and stuff 'em in ASC magazines, & it's a win all around.
Exactly.
If Hornady were to get behind 6mm Hagar (they would name it something else) it would have to satisfy the precision crowd and the varmint crowd.
I think that's why they settled on 6ARC. It can do both disciplines.
