[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1530414, member: 30902"] Hornady recognized the potential of a short action 6.5 and had the advantage of about 7 years advancement in bullet tech. Their team was also competing against .260's throughout that era who came back and told them of it's success. Hornady then realized that with the new bullets it could do amazing things and came up with their own improvement over the .260. When however you run the two size by side, same bullets, same twist rates etc they are pretty well ballistic twins. About the only two things Remington has come up with in the last sixty years they didn't screw up were the 7RM and the 300 Rum; Somehow they got those two about right. It had to be a complete accident in both cases. [/QUOTE]
