[QUOTE="redleg1013, post: 1516526, member: 49994"] To assuage your concerns, yes the 6.5 Creedmoor is pretty much here to stay. Ammunition is plentiful and diverse, it passes the "Walmart test" and is turning up in General stores. The fact that the US military has selected it for the new intermediate cartridge has all but sealed its permanence and milsurp brass will start trickling into the system. As for being more than a "deer gun" Ryan Cleckner (NSSF spokesman, Army Ranger and Special Operations sniper) recently took one to Africa and harvested several game animals there. Anecdotally, the 6.5x55 Sweede has been enough to take reindeer and moose for about 100 years. The Creed is, for all intents and purposes, a updated Sweede that's been pseudo-Ackley'ed. Go ahead and get one. [/QUOTE]
