Is the 6CM ok? ...... Asking for a friend. smile

I think so as long as you don’t have a scope that looks like the Hubble Telescope sitting on top.


It's a VXIII 4.5x14 B&C. Big enough for a heavy sporter.

Hornady factory 103s.

Yeah, I don't understand it. I have one and I like it. Where's the problem? I also have 308s, 30-06, 30-30, 25-06, 338 Federal, etc. I like all of them.

Mine seems to fit in between my .243 and .30-06 just fine.

All the good guys have left . you folks ought to evaluate yourselves and your purpose here on 24 hour campfire . The owner is gracious enough to have this place for sportsmen and deserves many thanks and much respect. It's disrespectful to talk about gays and homos on a site such as this one. Thank you Mr Bin for putting up with this childish bunch.

Exactly.

And the 6.5x55 is a bit more than that.

And the 6.5-06 a bit more than that.

And the .264 Win Mag a bit more than that.



I like the high SD of 140 grain, 6.5mm bullets for ballistics purposes, but at 400 yard and closer hunting ranges, a 100 grain spitzer in a .257 Roberts kills deer just as dead, just as easily.






It’s not a 260 and not about case capacity…JFC




You missed the point.

Ballistically, it is essentially identical to the the 260 Remington, which was around for decades as the 6.5-308 wildcat and known by several other names. It was standardized by Remington in the late '90s.

Creedmore fanboys seem to think that the shape of the case is somehow magical compared to other cases of similar capacity.

Whatever.


Yes, remember all the "magical geometry" bs published around the RSAUM and Win Short Mags. And then all the sadness when people figured out their new fangled wonder rifle would do SLIGHTLY better than any other in an '06 based cartridge.

Not a lot of ink wasted on short mags these days.

Magical geometry? How did you ever measure this magicness? I bet LOTS and LOTS of shooters were pretty miffed that their results were just SLIGHTLY better than the good old 30.06 caliber. How many new 30.06 based rounds have gone mainstream and get regularly manufactured by ammo companies? I'm not quite sure

And that $400 Wallmart Special POS Rem, unmodified except for trigger adjustment, does MOA.

So there!

I wouldn't mind having a 6.5 Creed, but I have rifles now that haven't been shot in 10 years, much less hunted.
