[QUOTE="Bruce Treloar, post: 2340148, member: 104002"] I've done a lot of wildcatting with the .243 case, reducing the capacity so the best 243 load fills to the bottom of the neck and extending the length of the neck. Selecting correct barrel twist based on preferred projectile, diameter, length and velocity. The 6.5 Creed looks like it has it all including choice of large or small primer. I would favor the small primer but group size would determine what to use. I want one shot humane kills with the least amount of spoiled meat and if that's not possible then leave the shot for another day. If you can't get good results with this cartridge then look in the mirror to see the problem [/QUOTE]
