Developed to take advantage of the extremely accurate 6.5mm bullet, the 6.5-300 is a 300 WBY case necked down from 30 caliber to 6.5mm. The result was the fastest 6.5mm cartridge on the market pushing a 140 gr bullet over 3400 fps.
The rising popularity of the extremely accurate 6.5mm bullet led to the creation of the 6.5-300 which is the fastest 6.5mm on the market today.
