Pardon a 224 Kreedmire crushing the 243 Win. Hint.......................... Maybe not. I could, likely, be entertained enough, though with a 25-Oh tossing 110 ELD-X or 115 VLD Hunting.

Pretty sure the 22 Creed would kill deer , unless your state requires something more than a 22 cal. Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.

bigsqueeze Campfire Outfitter B Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 10,817 So Cal	Originally Posted by 338fed Time for a new gun and don't have anything in the small to mid range in the stable, gun is going to be used for long range coyotes mainly as the AR-15 just can't get there with its 16" barrel but will probably used for pronghorn too. I've got a 300wby that I don't use much anymore and my main squeeze is the 338 federal so I was thinking something like 243, 25-06, 6.5PRC, 257 wby, 6.5-300wby, 280AI. I do know I don't want a creedmore just because I refuse to get on the bandwagon but I really like the looks of the PRC, i do reload all my rifle ammo so in store available is little concern as long as I can get brass or make it. Thank Chuck ..............Well since everyone is the 6.5 Creed bandwagon, then how about the 6mm Creed? LOL Your 300 Wby, though you can use it, is too much. A 6.5/300 Wby is too much imo as well. Your 338 Fed is short to medium range and is not the best application for your above purpose. From your choices I would go with either the 25-06 or the 6.5 PRC. And if choosing a 6mm, I would opt for the 6mm Creedie..... 28 Nosler,,,,300WSM,,,,338-378 Wby,,,,375 Ruger

Unless of course a bullet is the only thing in life you could possibly get a chance at smooching. Then strive for long OAL, high BC, retarded velocity, and smoochiness.

Ken, much as I like the 243, the 6mm CM is just a better "ground-up" cartridge design. May as well start out right.
