I am not sure what to expect, but it is interesting how sophisticated Hornady's marketing has become. Hornady is beginning to be like McDonald's and Purina. Lots of marketing and not much product.

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. Like to see the CM myself, though I've no particular need for one. The .25 bullets are tougher without a cartridge/rifle platform for them either existing or co-released. They won't make any money waiting for folks to re-barrel their .257s, and it's a tight squeeze between 6mm and 6.5. Not against it, just don't think they'll try to shoehorn something like that in.
What fresh Hell is this?

Maybe Hornady is going to re-introduce the bullets they dis-continued.

Wouldn't it be funny if it is a 7.62 Creedmore. Especially after the 4/1 aprils fools posts. Like the 30 TC??? 😂

I doubt that it is shotgun ammo, as mentioned above, due to the video emphasizing accuracy.
Since they've already done all they can for making accurate ammunition, and indeed accurate cartridge introductions like the Creedmoor series, it would seem like it only leaves some introduction of a weapons system such as a semi-custom rifle.
Let's hope it's in 22 Creedmoor with a 7 or tighter twist!

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....
If it says Hornady on the box, I run away at the earliest opportunity. Some of the worst ammunition I have used in the past so even though it might be better now, I pass. Nothing they make appeals to me.

What is wrong with their reloading components? Great stuff IMO.

Federal Cartridge is now going to manufacture 280 improved ammo maybe Hornady is involved in it too ? Or maybe Hornady will be producing some heavier grain 25 caliber bullets like 140 grain that are very long with very high ballistic coefficients ?

You're probably correct. I've not spent enough time looking at 25's to have much insight into it. The lack of higher BC bullets for that caliber has always seemed odd to me.

I tried to figure out what the raised letters were, I have watched it multiple times, with the sound off. The hint is there, we just have to decipher it
These are the letters i think I see ATTRTI
Using an unscrambler I get ATTRIT

190 grain BTSP’s? Various other bullets that we’re discounting? x2, maybe a .284 154 gr RN? That would make my day.
