A classic 6.5 Creedmoor is called a 6.5X55 Swede, no? Still a nice looking rifle.

Why can’t they do that one in 7mm-08 instead of the Creed? Do all rifles need to be in 6.5 Creed now?

I bet they sell all of them. Which is the goal after all.

When four of the five top threads in this sub forum are talking about the cartridge in question, that might be a clue as to why a company might make rifles so chambered....

I hope the industry isn't following the "fire". Like a bunch of old biddys arguing at the bingo parlor. In all seriousness. I figure that's why Tikka changed their bolt shroud, chit canned the scope rings, and opened up the ejection port. This forum was by far the worst of the half dozen or so I visit. All our dumbass whining and crying might be getting results. How about that? Scary.
How about a little more bitching about no 6mm or 22 Creedmoor in their line. Let's get with it!
That Kimber should sell like hotcakes. I like those classics. Nice rifles.

Good Lord. Is time moving so fast now that a 12 year old cartridge is considered "Classic"...?
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

This little Kimber 84m has ruined me..............Classic Select in .308 win It was my first Kimber a few years back. It's the only reason I own a .308(great cartridge). It started me down the slippery slope of Kimber ownership. I know have a classic 25-06, classic select 308, two Kimber Montana .223's (one threaded, one not), and three Kimber longmaster classics in .223..........and now waiting on the classic in 6.5 creed to arrive this week. The Kimber montana in .223 may be the "perfect" rifle for me. Just one of my absolute favorites. Boy that Kimber roulette sure hasn't kept me away from the table. All of mine shoot under 1/2 MOA.

I saw some CBHS flaring up, so I thought I'd try to cool it off.

A fine rifle for the price.
