I normally refrain from these kinda comments. But am I the only one here who doesn’t really care for hornadys’ products?

Idk what did it for me. The zombie BS , the fueled by hornady stickers, their reloading components, the creedmoor craze....

I'll go 7mm PRCS (S for shortened). Probably has a new bullet material that takes the BC to unheard of territory. I hope its incredibly successful...I'm looking to pick up some used 6.5 stuff at steep discounts from all those headed to the new bowl of Kool-Aid.

Some new version of the wheel I am sure. 6.5 components might get real cheap though.

Remember back a while, when everything was 'Tactical'?

You could take a 1 cent drinking straw, paint it black, and sell it for $10 as a 'tactical hydration device'.


I didnt think we were out of that craze yet.

If they are the .308 Interlocks, bring 'em back!

My money is on either a .25- or .27-caliber Creedmoor cartridge. There isn't much unclaimed territory except in the area of reforming those recalcitrant American calibers that are habitually assigned to slow-twist barrels.


Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

With Dave Emory retiring in the last year I hope Hornady continues to move forward in product innovation.

Same here. What they call new technology really isn't. And, they often copy competitors with inferior products. They really fugged up the 450 Bushmaster ammo with that FTX load. Accuracy means nothing if it is a bullet that can't hold together. The negative reviews are countless.

I believe they will standardize the 22 Creedmoor. It’s popularity now will make it a runaway success. It will be marketed for use of heavy for caliber high BC fast twist use. They will offer long range match and hunting bullets.

Hornady’s bullet line up and performance are great. I’m betting it’s a rifle, listen to what was said at the beginning of the video.

“Accuracy doesn’t just happen, you have to make it happen”

I like Hornady products. They have been upping their game for some time now.

I hope it’s a cool guy .22 Creedmoor with a 7 twist.👍👍🇺🇸


All the best things in life, live on the other side off fear.

The true eye sees not the despair of its victims, only the elegance of equilibrium. It's a demonstration of superior judgment.

I'd guess (and like to see) the .22 CM. Of course ammo would be using the 88 ELD and possibly the 70 GMX.

Would be interesting if they introduced some high BC .257 bullets.

I partially agree. While some things seem hokey to me, I do appreciate whatever involvement they had in developing the Creed. Having owned three now, and seeing what you can now do consistently with inexpensive rifles and inexpensive Hornady factory ammo, I have to acknowledge that they have a better mousetrap. Evolutionary vice revolutionary, but the result is consistently excellent results.
As to a new announcement, who knows. Given the current selling trends it will probably be something tactical related. My desire would be a high weight for caliber bullet with improved weight retention while retaining the BC and consistency of the ELDs.

While I do think the whole Zombie crap was just that, crap, I think Hornady did hit a home run with the ELD-X line of bullets. The Creedmoor craze has done well for them as well. I think it's a new Creedmoor cartridge myself, I've read on another forum it's a new type of shotgun ammunition. I guess we'll just wait and see.
