Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 6.5 creedmore popularity?

It's a very well engineered, well thought out round, designed from the ground up to handle long, high ogive bullets in a SA mag without issues. That it does very well.

And, as mentioned, factory ammo is super quality, maybe the most accurate out of the box ammo anywhere.

I'm reloading for my new 700/Shilen, but find that the factory ammo is about as accurate as my current best loads. So, while I work on loads, I may shoot Hornady 140 gr. AMax's at WT's early this season. They shoot sub inch consistently out of a light, #2 barrel.

What's not to like.
