[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 1806793, member: 307"] Got the March/April 2020 edition of RifleShooter and things are looking good for the upcoming year. Just a few of the highlights: Barnes is producing a 6.5mm 145gn Match Burner and .308 212gn LRX. Berger is producing several new bullets, some I've heard about, some not: .224 85.5gn LR Hybrid Target (LRHT), 6mm 109gn LRHT, 7mm 190gn LRHT, .308 245gn EOL Elite Hunter! and 208 & 220gn LRHT. Hornady is producing a 224 90gn A-Tip Match, 7mm 166 & 190gn A-Tip, .308 176gn A-Tip and 190gn Sub-X(?), .338 300gn A-Tip and 225gn GMX, .375 390gn A-Tip and .416 500gn A-Tip. Nosler is producing a 6mm 115gn RDF, and .277 165gn AB LR! Sierra is producing Tipped GameKings for .224 64gn, 6mm 100gn, 7mm 150gn, .308 125 & 180gn. Alpha Munitions is making brass for 6mm Dasher, 6mm GT, 6mm BR, .25 Creedmoor (all SR primers). Hornady is making brass for 5.45x39, 7-30 Waters, .284 Win., .350 Legend and Modified cases for .26, .28, .30, .33 Nosler and .350 Legend. Lapua is making brass for 6.5 Creedmoor w/LR primers (thought they already did). Nosler is making brass for .17 Rem. Fireball, .27 Nosler & 6.5 PRC. Everyone probably knows (I think) of Winchester's new 6.5 StaBall temp-stable ball powder w/copper fouling-reducing additives. Vihtavuori is making a N555. VV calls it the most temp stable powder in its class and is comparable to 4350's burn rate. Includes anti-fouling agent and excellet lot-to-lot consistency. Federal is adding several of their Terminal Ascent hunting bullets to their line up. .264/130gn, .277/136gn, 7mm/155gn, .308/175 & 200gn. Speer is making 6.5mm 140gn Impact bullets and .308 172 & 190 Impacts. These and the Federal Terminal Ascent use "Slipstream" polymer ballistic tips. Something new? Never heard of 'em. Looks like a lot of new "stuff" coming down the pike. [/QUOTE]
