[QUOTE="Coyote Shadow Tracker, post: 2201284, member: 116439"] I know that this forum is for us "Shooters/Hunters" to mostly gain knowledge from each other, help each other out and possibly sell/trade/buy some needed hunting shooting components. We mostly like the 6.5 bullet because of the ballistics. When the 6.5mm first came out it was a winner right out of the gate. Now after years of technology manufactures are consistently trying to improve this bullet to gain some of the market share. We built a .260 when it first came out as a wild cat 308 case. Years later we have had and still have several .260s and will always have this caliber in our stock. Currently going a little faster with a 6.5X 284. I read this forum so I am guilty as the rest of you, but for the life of me I can't see why there are 30 posts on the 6.5 Creedmoor with not really any substantial information on the cartridge itself, just that most think that it was over HYPED from Hornady. Seems to us like a wasted thread people's time reading and responding. Personally, I don't care if you shoot a 6mm Creed or 6.5 Creed or any other Creed. It's only a name on the cartridge, but like non other. The shooting world either like the Creed and owns them or doesn't like the Creed and we believe it is just because of the name "Creedmoooore" along with some publicists hyping the cartridge on the internet and shooting forums. To each his or her own opinions. We will still keep shooting the .260 Rem, 243 Win. If you are a handloader it really doesn't make a difference what the cartridge is called. We just load brass with powder, place a bullet in and shoot for fun, hunting or competition. [/QUOTE]
