[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1647213, member: 69192"] I can comment on the.243 Winchester when it came out. I bought one because of all the hype, shot it and found the round to be extremely accurate with little recoil in the Remington model 600 rifle that I had at the time. I think the cartridge was a bit overrated at the time, however my expectations could have been inflated a bit also. About 30+ years ago my daughter wanted to go deer hunting, I bought her a Ruger 77 featherweight in .243 because I felt that it was a good cartridge for her to begin deer hunting with; light recoil, extremely accurate abd adequate enough for deer. I’d like to say that I’m not a Creed person at all because for me there are better cartridges for my hunting needs. But........in all honesty if the same circumstances arose today with my granddaughter I’d seriously consider the 6.5 Creedmor as her first deer rifle. Cannot believe I just wrote that!!:(;):rolleyes:!!! [/QUOTE]
