6 creed or 6 GT?

[gsharer]

I'm doing a 6 build. Up in the air on 6 creed or a 6 GT. Which one would you build?

What's the purpose of the rifle? Personally I'd go for a dasher just because that's the hottest thing right now.

6 GT … can do everything the 6 Crd can do, easy to load for, easy to feed, easier on the barrel…It is the EZ button.

If you want factory ammo then 6 creed. Otherwise I like the 6GT personally. I have all the stuff for a build but a barrel. Prob will be finishing it this coming year.

Isn't that like saying the 308 will do everything a 30-06 will do?

Ummm....I don't see a 6GT pushing a 105 Hyb @ 3188fps.
Heck, my 22GT can barely push a 77SMK to those speeds.

For steel and such, 6GT will last longer. For hunting, give me the extra 200fps of a 6CM.

I love my lightweight 6XC for hunting but my vote between 6GT and 6 Creedmoor would be the Creedmoor...based on component availability and ease of loading, lots of info and support from "the nation".

...your mileage may vary!

Thanks for the input everyone. Think I'm going with the creed. More out there for it. Barrel life I'm not concerned about. If I shoot it out I'll put another one on it. Alamo firearms is a 40 minute drive from me.

I just made this same decision a few weeks ago and went with 6GT. But this will be for steel and PRS games.

Alamo precision in Dallas area?

The op didn't specify exactly what he wanted. Will a 6GT kill an animal just as dead yes, will a 6GT get to the target and ring steel yes.

6-6.5mm Lapua or 6XC.

I have around 10 6 creedmoors as my boys can handle the recoil and shoot them well. My oldest started deer hunting at 6 and my youngest at 4. They shoot them extremely well and they have killed deer with them out to 300 yards. I stretch them a good bit more. Theirs wear a 12.5" barrel.
