The cartridge is fine, it's the Creedtards that bother me. It's the only subject they want to talk about.
It should be noted that there are some fine people that own Creedmoors and most are not Creedtards.

Hahaha! I enjoy seeing people melt down and self destruct like a pack of liberals trying fit through the " Safe space " door at the same time at the slightest mention of the 6.5 Creedmoor. Fact is the cartridge is more capable than 90% of its drivers.

All the best things in life, live on the other side off fear.
The true eye sees not the despair of its victims, only the elegance of equilibrium. It's a demonstration of superior judgment.

Cuz it gave us the 6 Creedmoor! We will see 100 threads on why it is much better than a .243, just like the 6.5cm is better than a .260!

Because it's a great well designed and well balanced giant slayer and good things scare some people.

6.5 Creedmoor is the new .270.

I can't "love" or "hate" any inanimate objects. I can utilize them or reject them based on how they fit into my life. I'll save my passion for dogs and women.

Hate? I got a Howa Lightning in 6.5CM from Whittaker's for $320 bucks shipped. Got a deal on black friday for a SS fixed 6x MQ and mount for $260.
Thing shoots well, and isn't made of plastic. No hate here.

I have been shooting it for a few years in competition and have burnt out two barrels with the chambering. My complaint all along has been the Hornady brass - it plain sucks. Plus the neck is a bit forward for the 140 grain Berger Hybrid. I am very intrigued by the new Lapua brass using the small primer, and have some to try out, but the 6.5x47 fixed all the problems the Creedmoor set out to fix, and in a more efficient manner. The CR is successful because it was marketed well and all the fuss Hornady put behind it, not because it is the best 6.5 short action chambering.
