FRB6.5 Wrote:Pretty sure .300 Whisper was created in the early 1990's (J.D. Jones/SSK). I recall shooting a memorial match in Tucson 1995, for the late Bruce Nelson. There was a competitor running a suppressed .300 Whisper AR.
There is also a .375 Cheytac that is popular for ELR.
Roger that. The list I'm working off of has dates of formal acceptance. Some of them seem off to me.
I remember when .300 Whisper was first mentioned and it was a JD Jones creation in the 1990s. I mentioned that in the other thread about advertising or lack thereof for 6.5 Grendel.
Of all these cartridges, I bet 6.5 Grendel, .300 BLK, and .17 HMR have the highest production numbers, along with 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.8 SPC.
