Yea, I think your correct,
But I am sure I have seen Kimbers, in 6.5 Creedmore, not sure what models, 6.5 Creadmore seams to be getting offered, in more and more rifles. Nice well balanced cartridge,

The Kimber .260 rifle I have, was a custom ultralight build, that I go at a deep discount, when the guy who ordered it couldn't pay for it, I like the Manners stock, and thought about ordering one for my M70, in 7x57, but at $1200 Canadian, plus import fees of $150, 4 years ago, bit to rich for me. Got a Bell and Carson medalist for $350 instead.

I've been getting some trigger time up on the 6.5 creedmoor. Granted - my rifle is a cheap Ruger American. But with 140gr VLDs, i'm getting ballistic performance almost identical to a 270 winchester chucking a 130gr gameking. At least out to 600 yards.

How many grains of powder are you running @Daggers_187?

42gr of 2209.
