[QUOTE="dblman, post: 737352, member: 60198"] Hi there, I am new to this website but not new to long range shooting and I would like to make an observation on 6.5 calibers for ling range shooting/hunting. I have been shooting a custom 6.5X284 for many years now with good success. I have been pleased and satisfied with the results both on targets and also big game. Elk, mule deer, white tail deer and sheep. It is a great caliber and I think very well of it. I have recently had another rifle built by the same gun smith, Triple G Gunsmithing in Stephenville, TX. This one on the newer 6.5 Creedmore. Man alive this thing is baaaddd. I am getting the same ballistics from the Creedmore as from the 6.5X284 with less powder, less recoil and less report/noise. At this point I am ready to give this new cartridge the title of 2nd most efficient of all cartridges. The 22 long rifle holds the #1 spot for efficiency forever i guess. Anyway, if you are a 6,5 nut and have not tried this new caliber, please give it a look, you will not be disappointed I bet. Good Shootin'. MM [/QUOTE]
