[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1631714, member: 97414"] I have a 7.62 Creedmoor with a 32" bull barrel,,, I shot it out past the 1435 meter mark to see the boolitz hit the paper side ways. Ha... I bet the 185gr Juggernauts wouldn't of had enough energy to dint the leather on a catchers mit... The nice thing about the 762 over the 65 is the recoil,,, and a chance to get good at reading the winds... Did you know that nothing has nothing on most rifle cartridges up close or to mid range when going after critters,,, of course if I was shooting targets or iron gongs for the rest of my limited days I'd switch over,,, but 40+++ years of hunting with 30 & 338 caliber boolitz have proven them selves over and over,,, that's not saying that the 65 or 25 couldn't do the same thing... All of us know that the 270 and lots of other caliber boolitz can do the same thing.... I like the idea of the 65 Creed,,, but it ain't worth my time to switch over for a few extra gained feet of wind drift at the 8/900 meter mark,,, plus I'd have to buy another set of loading dies. Ha... Good on the next generation fore sure. [/QUOTE]
