Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters What's Hornady up to?

Other than marketing:



???

They're just rubbing the lotion on. Trying to get a reaction out of some.

They've found a way to make the bullet accelerate after leaving the barrel...IDK

Finally be able to keep their full bullet line in production?

That'd be nice.

Developed an App using doppler radar that can steer the bullet from the barrel to the intended target.

They finally figured out zombies are not real....

They are certainly up to something.

I phoned and discussed. They kept it under wraps and will release on the 27th of this month.

So sit on your hands or pick up the phone and call them.

But rest assured that I will follow through to the finality.

Sure am glad you are on top of it for us WET....


I couldn't sleep at night otherwise...


You phony, delusional P.O.S......

A kit for reloading .22 rimfire ammo?

Propellant that gives 10,000 fps at 45,000 psi?

Plasma rifle in the 40 watt range?

Factory B-29 ammo?




No offense to JB, but I'm kinda hoping for the plasma rifle...

Sounds like they have been working on filling government contracts that they have won.

As if the folks at Hornady are gonna tell you what's going on.

What ever the "New" might be Hornady has not not made any product or marketing mistakes the last 15 years.

I do hope they could just concentrate on shipping the products they already are supposed to manufacture.

Damn you're a special kind of stupid.

I didn't think that, given their hype on the date and obviously purposeful vagueness, they'd give away their secret.

I did hope that perhaps some GUNWRITER here (read: not know it all dipshits like you) might say, "bullet breakthrough" or "new cartridge".

Next time I have a question I'll PM you to have my question repeated back to me in 500x the necessary words.

Ha! Now THAT would be a BREAKTHROUGH!

A buddy of mine who knows Jason said they're discontinuing the 257cal/100 gr Interlock which seems weird since there is no corresponding SST to take its place. Now obviously this HUGE NEWS isn't specifically about that, but I wonder if they're announcing something that'll revamp their product line.

Like Speer did w/ the bonded full curl or whatever it was almost called after they got people enthused but before they decided not to make em...

Hornady products that interest me are in good supply locally.

That said - a single die for reloading (does it all) with 0 run out?

Originally I was thinking "The Hornady Rifle" but doubt it. While tight with Ruger - I really don't think the shooting industry is clamoring for a "semi-custom" in the 1500-3000 dollar range. That's an itch already scratched several times over.

Given the display of the doppler in the beginning - I also wonder if it's some sort of new chronograph or bullet shape that provides high BC at shorter lengths? Is that possible?

Got to admit, I'm curious now.

Terrible news! The 257, 100 grain Interlock is a superb bullet.

Use doppler radar to measure velocity and distance to better determine BC?

My thoughts exactly; caused me to go get a lifetime supply...
