    Gun Rack advertising a new 6.5 Creedmoor Howa Lightweight for under $900 if that is a option.

    if what I have been reading is even remotely correct we may well be looking at ammo shortages again - so 7mm-08 would need a hard think can I get rounds in a years time - 6.5 Creedmore fast falling out of favour again ammo ?? - I would be looking at .270 and .308 being realistic - but then [I] approach buying firearms quite differently . I look at the quality of the rifle first - caliber second and so many are suitable really for certainly most hunting I do .270 25-06 7x57 6.5 308 even 30-06 all good - GC have some older Sako Finnbears going very reasonable prices and in .270 - barrel back to 20 in and a suppressor and a good quality synthetic stock - cant go wrong
