History of 6mm Remington Ammo

In 1955, the Remington Arms Company introduced the 6mm Remington. The 6mm was intended for varmint hunting. Many of its characteristics make it very effective for dispatching varmints of any size – including maintaining spot-on accuracy at ranges as far out as 400 yards, maintaining a velocity better than 1,000 feet per second with the 100 grain bullet (even as it sails past the 400-yard mark), and frequently making shots at 500 yards or more. Deer hunters have come to appreciate the 6mm Remington, as it performs very well on medium-sized game at distances beyond 300 yards.

Bullet Points: 6mm Remington Ammo

Introduced in 1955, the 6mm Remington was intended for varmint hunting. And with characteristics like spot-on accuracy at up to 400 yards and velocity at over 1,000 feet per second, this round is effective against varmints of any size.
6mm Remington ammo is also used by deer hunters, as it performs well on medium-sized game as far out as 300 yards. While it's a popular choice for hunting, it never gained popularity among competitive shooters.
This round is chambered in both bolt action and single shot rifles.
Many shooters see the 6mm Remington as the answer to the "One Gun Only" question – as its long-range capabilities and wide variety of ammo types make it a jack of all trades.
