[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2001410, member: 10755"] Hits at longer ranges will be easier with the STW, simple ballistics tells you so. Don’t have a Creedmoor, but run a 6.5x47 Lapua which is accurate to 1000....with the necessary equipment. You don’t mention if you have a portable ballistic app, rangefinder or weather metering system. 600yrds has considerable drop, you need a solution for that kind of distance and I would be running a 20MoA rail on the Creedmoor if it were me. I also run a 3-18x50 scope on mine, but can switch to a 4.5-27x50 in a pinch, as all 3 rifles I have are set up identically. My STW is one of the other 3 rifles, they are all switch barrels. 2 magnum length and 1 short action standard bolt face. Also have a 5R I will be turning into a switch barrel set-up in the future. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
