Just got an email from Nosler trying to sell me 24 Nosler brass, seemed like a weird way to introduce a new cartridge.

I thought I'd heard rumors about it a while back but this is the first real product I've seen. Their data has a 105 RDF maxed out at 2600ish fps with CFE in a 24" barrel.

It was only a matter of time before the 6mm wildcats went mainstream in AR's, but with 6.5 Grendel leading the way for energy on target and 224V throwing heavy high BC bullets further than previously thought possible I don't know how well a 6mm will fit in the middle.
 
Yeah I'm not sure I see the point of that one, other than to make use of brass they're already tooled up for. My 6mm Grendel variant (243 LBC) does 150+ fps faster with the 105 BTHP, and comparing their 90gr data to my 95gr VLD data looks like that applies for that bullet weight range too.
