[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1622921, member: 93138"] For the stated use and users I'd be wanting to stay with a short action. I had to look up the 6.5X47 as I've no familiarity with it. It is more similar than different to the Creedmoor. I'd say Creedmoor is easier for components in the US, but I doubt that there a huge functional difference between the two. I'm sure that upset some folks, but that is my assessment. Worst case it looks like you could make 6.5X47 cases from Creedmoor cases. If that's not enough bang at the target then I'd be looking at one of the short action magnums, but for me personally it wouldn't be in a 6.5 bore. [/QUOTE]
