Thread: Creedmore and .270

I asked a reputable source recently what their best selling cartridge list is.

.308, 7mm-08, .270, .223, 7mm mag

Creedmoor not at the same level as the top 5 yet. 6.5x55 Swede nowhere.

Creedmoor deserves to be growing, its a damn good cartridge. Some tend to forget that every few years there’s a new cartridge, some make it, some don’t. My Grandpa used to tell me how .243 Winchester got lambasted in the late 50s by 7mm, 303 and 8mm shooters. He ignored them all. Now look.

This doesn’t represent all rifle sales obviously, but will be a pretty good proxy for the overall picture I’d say.
