Hornady has teased this since March, but official today.
6mm ARC a shortened Grendel case so base of bullet does not have to be shoved past Case neck junction. Optimised for ARs, but as we all know, little short, low recoil bolt actions are fun as hell.

Re: New Hornady 6mm ARC
I saw the announcement on the Hornady Instagram feed this morning. Thought it looked like a 6PPC, but was hard to tell on my phone. So if its a "shortened Grendel case" then I imagine its going to shoot very accurately, or at lease as accurately as the "weapon system" that most of them will be shot out of is capable of acheiving.

Re: New Hornady 6mm ARC
How cool would this thing be as a small game/small deer tool in a little CZ ???
Going to make it very hard to avoid acquiring another calibre.
