I wouldn't forsake my 257Rob for a 6.5CM so I'm having a 6mm CM put together instead. Roberts, Creed and Swede, just one of each. They all kill stuff pretty dead. Have heard good stuff about the 6mm CM. My only 6 is a .240. It kills stuff, too. DF

7mm-08 is as close as I come to one. But I'll probably have one in the future.

I built one on a pre 64 model 70 and put one together for my daughter on a classic model 70, both have been shooting great with barnes 127 LRX's.... a lot to like thus far.

Have had several, but none at the moment. Will likely have one or more again in the future. The variety of quality ammo available for it is a big plus.
Always remember that you are unique, just like everyone else.

Two here. A Tikka T3X SS, and the PSA AR10.. both of them are like 22 LR’s, just easy and fun to shoot.

I have two, a T3X and CTR. They're boring.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Post that in the proper forum. Id like to hear about those... i have a 7mm08 classic featherweight id like to re-barrel.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Bought a weatherby vanguard s2 in 6.5 creedmoor last year, mounted a new leupold vx2 3-9x40, broke in the barrel just like weatherby said. The rifle was very accurate. I'm a 30 cal guy so I gave the creedmoor to one of my sons in law. I have no need for another.

We need to make a deal, I can have my buddy bring it to Wyoming at the end of the month. Give you some walking around money to find another Creed!

Bought a Ruger Predator a couple of years ago because it was the cheapest way into one just to see what the fuss was all about. IMO it lives up to the hype. I later ran across a deal on a Bergara B14 Hunter. I like the round, but couldn't justify having 2 so I let the Ruger go.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

I had a Weatherby VG s2 in 6.5 creedmoor for 1 year and killed one deer. It is a good caliber, but I sold it and I went back to the 7mm-08.
