[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 1952481, member: 53101"] '06 went on life support soon after the 7mm RM was released. Hornady took it off life support with the CM and PRC. Sure it is still lingering, but lingering isn't living. I have an '06 and everyone has an '06 because they are everywhere and ammo is everywhere. It is going legacy the same as incandescent light bulbs did. 6.5 CM ammo and rifles are everywhere now..... I honestly think Hornady will be forced to fill the 7mm void with a 7.0 PRC which will overshadow the 6.5 CM boom in terms of popularity to become the next iconic American Cartridge (see 270 win or 7mm RM type popularity). They just can't ignore it because all that money is sitting there staring them in the face and has been since the 6.5 CM took off. .30 cal is so 21st Century. Light Long Range Rifles are king and 7.62mm takes too much powder to be efficient. [/QUOTE]
