    WTB X Bolt S/S wood or syn or T3X S/S pref lefty, 6.5 Creedmore

    Anyone know of dealers/sports shops that may have one of the above in stock? Prefer a left hand but not a big deal. Seems to be very few of either model around, new model shipment due maybe?

    Would look at a used one but have to be mint.

    There's a 243 LH Tikka on the Buy, Sell, Swap forum that you may have just missed out on.

    I think people get board 6.5 creedmoor can be difficult to get cranking with good speed and accuracy it’s easy to get one or the other but both can be a challenge with some rifles.... it just takes time in the loading room and on the range to really get a load cranking and some people don’t have the patience
    Ive owned 3 of the main 4 6.5 rounds (short action) currently own creedmoor
    And ex owner of 260 and 6.5x55 I haven’t owned the 6.5x47L but its a good round aswell
    My opinion those 4 take ya pick they are all Virtually the same with a good handload
    All 4 will send bullets at Virtually the same speed useing similar powders and charges

    I went creedmoor as I wasn’t quite geling with the rifle in 260 and the rifle I wanted was chamberd in creedmoor
