Good thing you didn't fall for his ruse. The ol' 'take 'em to bed' trick is well known way for crapmore guys to get fresh meat......

Well I've been enjoying my 260 Creedmoors since they came out back in 1998.
brass availability has never been a problem from day one... even if it don't say 260 on the bottom... more like it says 308 Winchester...

After reading all the stupid chit on the fire and net about the 6.5 CM .....I was shocked when I shot a 250 pound Ky buck last year with a 6.5 CM...It actually fell over Dead....... and it only took one bullet behind the shoulder........ .

Yep. I have killed 20+ with it and not one bullet bounced off.
You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it. A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck. Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.

Yeh, but 604 yards, no way!
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

I got my first barrel chambered for 6.5 Creedmoor just a few days ago. So far it is absolutely horrid. I can totally see why so many folks hate it. My Bartlein 6.5 Creedmoor barrel has “only” averaged .478” at 100 yards for 4 five-shot groups with factory Hornady American Gunner Ammo. John

Yea, my Wife took a Bull Elk and a Whitetail with her Creedmoor last fall but we were prepared not to be shocked as she had done the same for years with her other 6.5, which happens to be a 6.5 Swede but with all this weird "Crapmoor" talk we were a little concerned the animals would realize those 140 NP's came out of a case with a different headstamp, I guess not !

I did everything wrong with my Creedmoor adventure and it still shoots pretty well. First off I bought a cheap 700 SPS sporter.. Then I stuck it into a light fibreglass stock by grinding out some bedding to get it to fit. Then I shot factory ammo. In this case Federal 120 gr Trophy Copper. I had boresighted it at home and hit paper at 100 with the first group. The first 2 shots I put through the barrel touched. The third opened it up to .520" Let it cool and then shot two groups back to back at 200 that went 1.06" and .90" The Timney trigger and the 6.5-20 Leupold may have helped. If I rebed it I might be be able to get rid of those fliers....:-) I plan to shoot it at 300 today and see how it holds up. Then swap a 3.5-10 on it for hunting. With a 120 @ 2800 it's a 257 Roberts with a .007 larger bullet diameter. We know the Bob works...........

I think I might sell it; the last two shots don't touch.

Dude...you misspelled "270 Winchester"... The guy with the 270, would have his hand on the other dudes azz... Just sayin. That's about as gay as 3 shout groups too...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
