Butch,

What my friend luv2safari said about the 9.3x62-which I also basically said in my post.

Whether this thread is about "pure" accuracy is another good question. Do we define that as .22 rimfire accuracy at 50 yards, short-range benchrest accuracy at 100-200 yards, or longer-range competition?

It also depends on the rifle. In my experience Tubb's 6XC beats the hell out of the 6mm Creedmoor--but my 6XC is a 13-pound rifle built by Charlie Sisk, while the two 6mm Creedmoors I've owned have been "hunting weight" factory rifles. As is my 6.5 PRC, meaning it weighs under 7 pounds without scope. But Charlie also built it, with a Lilja barrel, and it will consistently group 5 rounds (not 3) of its best handload under half an inch. That won't win any short-range benchrest competitions, but will beat the hell out of any 6mm PPC load from my 13-pound bench rifle at 500+ yards.

Hope all is well in Texas!

Best,
John
