Thread: 6.5 Creed V 7-08

Yeah thats the thing the creedmore has managed to do that neither the swede nor the 260 has, and that is capture the attention of the greater american public. Having a efficient short action 6.5 with actual decent factory ammo options is a legitimate good thing I reckon.

In 10 years time the old heads will be talking about how there's nothing wrong with the 6.5 cm and why are people bothering to invent new calibers like the 277 hayabusa turbo.

Capturing the attention of the greater american public isn't a great endorsement ...

Perhaps not, but it does mean we get a variety of easily accesable quality factory ammo options. This is a first for any of the 6.5's. Big win for the average shooter imo.

Anyone who has spent time behind a 260, 6.5 cm or Swede knows just how good a medium power 6.5 is, and know we have a universally adopted one.
