[QUOTE="Outdrmn, post: 2957902, member: 19136"] I purchased a Tikka super lite in 7mm-08 last year because I got one for my wife almost 20 years ago and it still is an accurate shooter. Because of all the wisdom and knowledge from the generous folks here I’ve learned to hand load for accuracy and enjoy shooting a little farther than I used to. Here comes the fun part, talking with some friends one day and they’re telling me about their 6.5 creed’s and I say oh I’ve got 7mm-08 that’s a fun little shooter! And I immediately hear “ Oh you need a 6.5”!!! So I asked what be the improvement over my 162 eldm’s at 2640fps? CRICKETS, none of em had an answer but 6.5’a are better. So I’m curious, what will a 6.5 creedmoor do that my 7mm-08 can’t?🤷♂️ [/QUOTE]
