In my view the 6.5 Creedmoor has many charms quite applicable to the occasional shooter who shoots his deer inside 200 yards.
Yeah, like a 243 varmint gun loaded with noslers in deer season, huh?
A 243 loaded with 95 grain Ballistic Tips is a deer slayer, a fair bit more than a varmint gun.
Have you seen how a 260 Remington loaded with 129 grain Interlocks or 125 grain Partitions handles deer? If so I doubt you'd have much negative to say about the ballistic twin 6.5 Creedmoor.
