Equal pressure, the Creed comes in last.

New powders, such as RL-26, give new life to the Swede in a strong action.

To me, the CM is the best SA round. I like mine.

Also, seems to me the CM is easier to load for, not finicky about loads, shoots almost anything well.

My Swede is a tack driver with select loads,; my CM is inch or less with most any loads, even various factory ammo, probably the easiest to load for rifle I have and that includes some good ones..
