Pat, you just have too much fun and too many neat toys.

So , just like all the other Creeds it does has a little less preformance than existing cartridges!! I don't get it!! Unless it is fired in an Ar platform! Otherwise useless!! You'd be welcome to come out here next spring to our Icebreaker Shoot and attempt to "out perform" me with any of your rifles. I'd pay a considerable admission to watch that @sskicking.  Good GREAT shooting, Pat. Between you and Cinch, I now know why the brass is out of stock. *grins*

Estimated the velocity at 3400fps, printed a JBM sheet with a 200 meter zero, and these were the first three shots at 520M with 1.9mils on the El turret....
That is impressively flat.

Very nice. This makes me want to do a build in 22 CM.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

Question for those in the know.
I am thinking of re-barreling a rifle and had been considering a fast twist 22-250 AI as I already have dies and brass for that cartridge.
If you were in that boat would you still go with the 22 Creed? Just for a little background I don't intend to buy or shoot factory ammo.
Thanks

Thanks You’ll likely gain around 200fps more with the Creedmoor... What will you be using your rifle for?

Ah well velocity will be a wash... the only downfall I see is fire forming brass... you’re not going to get great barrel life with either one and forming brass isn’t going to help... if I already had the 22-250AI stuff I’d just roll with that... you’re probably only going to get around 1000 rounds out of either one...

Hit the range today for load development. Weather was hot and I battled mirage.
GAP 22 Creed, Extreme Hunter blueprint.
Horn 6mm CM necked down and turned.
F210M caps/Hornady 75g ELD
H4350
41.3 - A3358/26 SD
41.7 - A3382/8
42.0 - A3402/18
42.2 - A3439/18
42.4 - 3458 NA
RL 16
41.3 - A3366/11
41.7 - A3417/13
42.0 - A3435/5
42.2 - A3453/22
42.4 - 3477 NA
Pressure was mild to moderate. Plenty of room to push these pills faster.
Alpha brass arrived, so I can eliminate one more variable.......

I am using a Redding Type S FL 6.5 Creedmoor die with a .251 bushing for Hornady brass.

Can you bump shoulders with the 6.5 Creed dies?
