[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1724616, member: 93895"] Creedmoor is here to stay for sure. I think that the creedmoor rage is so strong & has been hyped to the extent that the common fellow thinks he's got so much of everything there is to offer in the creedmoor that he doesn't need to step up to anything else in 6.5 caliber. The common fellow already thinks he has 300 win mag performance from the creedmoor so the 6.5 prc or gap would probably mean 50 bmg performance to him and he really doesn't need that much. But most of us here have a much more reasonable idea of those cartridges. I think any other cartridge in 6.5 other than the creedmoor will be like comparing a 270WSM to a 270 win. The 270 WSM had it's fame & still has some left but it probably will never reach the sales that the 270 win did. Saying all of that, it doesn't matter either way that much to me cause if I built a 6.5 prc or gap I would procure enough components to last for the life of the barrel. [/QUOTE]
