Options for a good factory 18"-20" 6.5 Creedmoor?

[CONChunt]

I'm looking to diversify, and want to add a factory 6.5 CM with a 18-20" max barrel, but it must be threaded 5/8-24. I'm not having any luck with searches online....anyone know options for me to look at?

Edit to add that the gun would be used for hunting in tight quarters, so weight is a consideration.

The Sig Cross would fit those two requirements.

Bill Wilson. They come in occasionally just register email and they will notify you when they arrive.

I second the cross. I bought one in 6.5 Creedmoor and have been very eased with it.

Christensen Ridgeline comes in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 20" barrel.

Used to be able to get the Ruger American in a 16" or 18" as well. Not sure if that's still the case, I've only seen 22" lengths lately.

Tikka T3x CTR has a 20" option

I'd prefer not to go through those additional steps, unless it really was a superior option.

Budget?

$1500 or less, ideally.

OK, now there is a baseline for others to base their recommendation(s).

Sig cross, they can be found for 1500$ the action is actually quite smooth and bolt lift is light for a 3 lugs, triggers feel pretty decent too. Plus the stock folds! I've been wanting one pretty badly but will prob just throw a short barrel on my Christensen MPR.

Is the center of balance really far forward on the Sig Sauer Cross models?

Ruger American Rifle Compact in 6.5CM has a 20" 5/8-24 threaded barrel. I bought one and put it in a Boyds laminated stock for the grandson. Surprisingly accurate, it outshoots my Christensen Ridgeline 6.5CM w/20" barrel.

Slightly Rearward balancing with the one played with, but with a supressor I'm sure it'd be balanced pretty decent in front the mag well.
