I'll go out on a limb and say that a T3-SL Creed, SWFA scope, and 147 ELD-M is going to be THE rig of 2017.

I wonder if they would work with those old style pos boolets.

Never not funny


Clueless, or just ruffling feathers. grin

I own one Creedmoor, and planning on getting another.

They will go along nicely with my 22's, 243's, 270's, 7mm-08's, 300, 9.3x64, & 375.


LOL Love it!!!

Factory load?!? Gasp...

However, handloaded 140 partitions and RL16 are a REALLY nice combination!

I joined the Creedmore club today. Mama is out of town and it was raining here today so I took a trip to Cabelas in Wheeling, WV.

That is not what I went for, but I had a bunch of points (read Cabelas $) and the Gun Library guy showed me a Ruger American in 6.5 Creedmore that one of the employees had just traded in. I talked to the employee and he convinced me that there was nothing the matter with the rifle.

I'm not necessarily a Ruger guy but I couldn't pass it up.
I've heard a lot of good things about these newer, inexpensive Rugers.

I still intend to get a Mauser that I own rebarreled to 6.5 Creedmore.

Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks?
