The .17 Remington is based on the .223 Remington case necked down to .172 in (4.37 mm), with the shoulder moved back. [5] [6]Extremely high initial velocity (over 4,000 ft/s 1,200 m/s), flat trajectory and very low recoil are the .17 Remington's primary attributes.
The .25-06 Remington was a wildcat cartridge for nearly half a century before being standardized by Remington in 1969. Its design was based on the .30-06 Springfield cartridge necked-down (case opening made narrower) to .257 caliber keeping a similar cartridge length of its parent case, thus being chambered in standard-length actions.
The .223 Remington (designated 223 Remington by SAAMI [4] and 223 Rem. by the C.I.P. [5], pronounced "two-twenty three") is a rimless, bottlenecked, centerfire intermediate cartridge. It was developed in 1957 by Remington Arms and Fairchild Industries for the U.S. Continental Army Command of the United States Army as part of a project to create ...
As compared to the 1950s, there is broader public insight and knowledge of ballistic information today. This has led to a greater appreciation of the 6mm Remington. Hunters and long range shooters appreciate the cartridge capacity and ballistic capacity the 6mm Remington cartridge offers.
Two years later, in 1965, Remington Arms adopted the .22-250, added "Remington" to the name and chambered their Model 700 and 40 XB match rifles for the cartridge along with a line of commercial ammunition, thus establishing its commercial specification. [6] The .22-250 was the first non-Weatherby caliber offered in the unique Weatherby Mark V ...
Because 6.5 mm (.264") bullets have relatively high ballistic coefficients, the .260 Remington has seen success in rifle competition including bench rest, metallic silhouette, and long range. It is capable of duplicating the trajectory of the .300 Winchester Magnum, while generating significantly lower recoil. [1]
The .222 Remington was developed by Mike Walker, an engineer at Remington, who shot it in a benchrest competition in 1950 at the Johnstown, New York, gun club. [3] It was introduced with the Remington Model 722 bolt-action rifle. [4] The accuracy and flat trajectory of the bullet resulted in the adoption of the round for varmint and benchrest ...
