I finally got a break and took the 6 Creed to the range to finish break in and test some loads... Sure looks pretty I’m at around 65 rounds right now, and picked one load right at 3080 fps, then got her zeroed in on some steel at 600, 800, and 1000 yards. It’s a good feeling to zing the plates even before you have her running (past breakin), but I was staking them in at 600 & 800... , 1,000 was hitting but not so tight that I started rapid firing. anyway - sure looks pretty on the bench

Where is the motor..
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
