I've got three 6.5 creedmoors at the house right now and I really like them and they shoot great. The funny part of it is how so many people believe they have a 1000 yard elephant gun if they own one. I do appreciate what it is but I have accepted it's limitations. For many people, they are not aware that it has any limitations at all. Every different cartridge has it's tradeoffs regardless of what it is.

The 6.5 CM will do, within it's kill zone, anything the 6.5x55 will. The latter has killed 1000s of big game species all over the world.
Both have worked fine for me out to 300 yards.

Lol, I'll also be calling TBAC before I run an 80,000 round out of a 16" barrel on one of their cans.
1/2 the draw of the short barrel is room for the can but I don't know enough of the engineering behind them to know what pressure rating can will need to handle the 277 fury.
Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will weigh in. If I have a can rated for 300 win mag (66,000-ish?) I'd be worried about my can with higher pressure and shorter barrel?
Plus, you're 100% right, it'll still be loud.
If I understand the question correctly I think your estimate is on the lower end. From what I read on the Fury they are saying 150gr, roughly 3000-3200fps from a 16" barrel.
U heard right Sonny, mine shoots 1/4 MOA at 1000, behind the back, blindfolded wHeN I dO mY ParT.Blasphemy.....Sir! I'm offended ...........There is nothing on the face of the earth that will outperform a Needmore, That's what I hear anyway
Or a better suppressor. 20" 308W can be hearing safe with the right suppressor.
Heck, there are suppressors that aren't hearing safe on a 24" 308W too.

There is no suppressor that is hearing safe with any supersonic round.
Even my 22RF with a $300 can exceeds 85 DB with hi speed ammo.

You need to look at nikasil the coating material of high performance engine cylinders

Wrong it's called "nikasil" an electric charge passed through fine wire exploped in the cylinder and placed on the surface for a supper tuff coating.
So tuff pistons melt on it

I don't understand all the hoopla. I've been getting 3250+ fps out of my 20" BAR chambered in 270 WIN - with 130 gr pills and RL26 - with no signs of pressures @ 63.5 grains. Standard Hornady brass.
270WSM could do that without breaking a sweat.
