Short barrel 6.5 creed

[Tikkashooter]

Anyone running a 16-18" 6.5 creed? Is the length and weight savings worth the trade off in velocity? Will be used supressed and mainly for hunting

Not that short, but my 20" 260 Rem gets 2900 FPS with 120-123 gr bullets without pushing it. With a light 9" Harvester suppressor it handles very well. Figure about 25 FPS per inch you cut it down.
