<h2>Synonyms</h2><p>None</p><h2>Armament</h2><p>Suitably chambered rifles.</p><h2>Development</h2><p>The 6.5-284 Norma was developed as a joint venture between the Swedish firm Norma Precision AB and Black Hills Ammunition of the United States at the behest of the US military, which was seeking a cartridge with a trajectory approximating that of the 0.300 Winchester Magnum . The primary design goals were to reduce the recoil, noise signature and bore erosion associated with the 0.300 Winchester Magnum without significantly reducing overall ballistic performance. The 6.5-284 was derived from the 0.284 Winchester sporting cartridge, which was selected in part because it provides a large capacity in a relatively short cartridge case. Except for energy, the ballistics of the 6.5-284 approach those of the 0.300 Winchester Magnum . The 6.5-284 is intended for match shooting and sniper use to a range of 1,000 m and beyond, and is presently undergoing evaluation by US military for both match and sniper use. The 9.2 g (142 gr) Sierra hollow point boat tail bullet remains supersonic to a range of 1,500 m.
