I was thinking more along the lines that he has a crappy reamer.

my rem 788 6mm is a 1-12 and it shoot excellent with 70gr bullets.most groups are .5. it will also shoot 1inch groups with 100gr bullets.anything heavier you can forget.the gun was rebarreled to a varmint weight bullet and i use it for varmint hunting most of the time instead of deer.
we have a local gunsmith that loves most 6.5 calibers but he says he wouldn't own a creedmore. he says everyone he's built wouldn't shoot very well. When did JKOB move to Virginia?

The Creedmoor is the "worst of the 6.5s"???
That gunsmith is old and too cheap to buy a shiny new reamer, but yet still wants to get business. Move on quickly, as the next thing will be his turnaround times end up at years instead of weeks.

Ruger will likely have something in 6mm Creed in 2017. They seem to share the same bed with Hornady when it comes to dreaming up new calibers and rifle to chamber them in. If I were to bet, I'd say a Ruger American rifle in 6mm Creed will be popping up soon. I'm hoping it's the RPR. They used to make it in .243 with a 7.7 twist. Maybe the reason they dropped the .243 last year is because they planned on going to the 6 creed. I have no interest in the 6.5, but if Ruger does chamber the RPR in 6 creed, it will be my first chassis rifle.
Don't just be a survivor, be a competitor.
