I like the Bell and Carlson stock that it sits in.


Lots of .22-250 takeoff barrels to be had, maybe not in the MR contour though.
Maybe run that 6.5 Creed out to PRC or something more exuberant for a LA build.

Me, I’d rebarrel your 6.5 into a 6 Creed, and sell / trade the 22-250 stuff that’s gathering dust.


I've got a 6 Creed that is a real shooter. I also have a PRC that's a real shooter.
