I've killed quite a few whitetails but I quit using it and went back to my .270 because I never had one just drop DRT after the shot. I was always having to go find them. The 270 on the other hand, drops them on the spot. I love my creedmoor for shooting paper and I've shot it out to 500 yards very successfully.
I've killed a couple of trucks loads of deer with the 6.5 Creedmoor (and 130 Accubond). When I purposely took out the running gear or CNS, they dropped on the spot - when put in the boiler, they ran.......Prezact same performance when I've shot them with the .270. It's not the chambering.
