Maybe after we get to the .338 version with 160's.

What about a .17 Creedmoor?

A .308 caliber is always a success. 30 Creedmoor will be next.......except give it a cool name like 30 TC....or maybe not.

I really think a factory .277 and .25 Creedmoor would sell. The .308 had the .243 and the 7-08, let’s fill the gaps with the .277 and .25.

What's the matter with you guys?
No one has thought of the .20 Creedmoor yet?

How bout a 7mm Creed? Or a 7mm TC? I have my Dad's Mod. 99 .300 Savage, is it the first "short mag"?
I think all of the endless somebody's dream of a cartridge is best served in the "lower 48" and I think that most of Alaska's big game critters could care less about them. Our critters want to be shot with something at least the size of a 30-06. But our big bears, they would dearly love it if everyone up here ran around with a 6mm or 6.5 cartridge.
So why did I buy a 6.5 Creed, because I didn't have one and I needed an AR 10 for the arsenal. My problem is I get bored fast if I am sitting at the bench putting bullets into the same tiny little area shot after shot, it seems like a waste of ammo. I mean I already know what will happen when I pull the trigger right? If I lived in the rest of America I would have me a 6.5 Creed bolt gun.

We need a .23 Creedmoor, for the one or two states that still have a .23-caliber minimum for deer hunting.
Maybe the .20 Creedmoor (and maybe the .17 CM) should be on shortened cases. I heard some ammo company did pretty well with a series of really short rounds....

What about a .17 Creedmoor? I'd take that and a .416 Creedmoor and skip those 6 and 6.5 versions.
