[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1249865, member: 4566"] So 2997 with a 155 but only 2731 for the CREED? You ever loaded these two? 3k for a 308= 30" tube. So essentially the Creed gets a 22" tube and the 308 a 30"? Seems fair. Now, what about WIND? Hmmmm I will **** sure take the Creed there. How about penetration? Well a 140 or 143 or 147 or 155 or 160 6.5 will outpenetrate a 155 308 all day long. Recoil? Uhhhhhh CREED. Also lets use the same tube on both rigs. Lets run the 155 at 2800 and the 140 at 2800. That should be fair and actually a little favoring the 308. Now what do the numbers say? Also lets run the wind numbers (THE ONLY NUMBERS THAT REALLY MATTER). Who wins now? According to Berger the 6.5 wins. Ya have to compare apples to apples and juicing one round by 250 FPS while downloading the other isn't apples to apples. [/QUOTE]
