Blaser, for example, makes both break-action single shots and bolt rifles.

The following companies are offering ammo: Barnes, Berger, Browning, Federal, Hornady, Hunting Shack (HSM), Norma, Nosler, Remington, Sellier & Bellot, Sig Sauer, Swift, and Winchester, plus some brands I've never heard of before.

One of my professional hunter buddies in South Africa also owns a big sporting goods store in Kimberley. He reports at least 3/4 of the new rifles he sells these days are 6.5 Creedmoors, and a friend reports the same thing from a Zimbabwe store.

Obviously the fad is fading.


You forgot Ruger!
