[QUOTE="Schnyd112, post: 1571200, member: 90453"] 6.5 creed, had to see for myself. Curtis Custon axiom Hawk hill marksman, it was 23” but now it is just under 20” after it was set back. 419 hellfire, it had a muzzle breaks and more lil’ beast for 1800 rounds. Jewel trigger M5 dbm Manners PRS-1, pillars and devcon bedded from the tang to the recoil lug. Pst gen ii, 5-25x50 mil/mil, upgraded from a 3-15x42 swfa SS Weight around 10-11# Shoots 140 eld-ms at 2725-2730 I shoot it in NRL/tactical matches, prone long range steel, it has shot f-open (not for score because of the brake), I have shot it to 1250 and hope to get to a mile this year. It excels at nothing, I have no ballistic advantage over the other 6.5’s in its class and am probably behind most of the pipsqueak 6’s (brx, bra, dasher, etc) on anything inside 1200. Despite that I have a second and two third place finishes with it last year. it is exactly what you would expect a creedmoor to be: consistent and frankly, a little boring. No fire forming, no unicorn powders, easy to find components and tons of data. I upgrade it as I can, am really liking the gen ii pst as this year’s upgrade. Trying to decide on if I will stay with creedmoor or go back to .260, the barrel will go over 3000 rounds this year unless I change. [/QUOTE]
