The 6 Creed with 105 VLDs has been wrecking game for me in Idaho this fall. Feel guilty I didn’t even touch the .280ai.
The more I shoot and kill, the less bullet I think I “need”.

If you're not burning through batteries in your headlamp,...you're doing it wrong.

Dave Same here, I use the same bullet. Every deer looks like they've been hit with a 150 gr bullet.

I prefer to think the 6.5 CM to be the best, because that's what I bought! LOL! And I prefer to be on the heavier side of bullets. The only thing I have shot with mine so far is about a 200LB hog. Worked well. Mine is a Tikka T-3 Ultralite 6.5 CM. It shoots Hornady ELD-X 143 Grains into tiny little groups at 100 yards and into very small groups at 200 yards. It shoots much better than I can. I'm not knocking the 6MM CM though. I just have never owned one and probably won't because I'm doing my best not to add any other platforms than what I have. Only so much time in a day, week, year or our lives!
A 380 in my pocket is better than a 45 in my truck!
Violence may not be the best option... but it's still an option.

My 6.5-300 Wby works quite well. It pushes harder on my shoulder. Doesn't make me say "ouch."
