You actually admit you shop at Walmart?? I thought that was a big No No. As I asked in the last time I got asked that question. Where do you want me to go get laundry detergent My wife's sugar free peach water, ect. OH YES AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THIS AMMO. !!! You guys shop were ever you want I"LL SHOP the only store in 30 mile radius. Our Walmart still sells guns , ammo and almost every outdoor equipment I use. 80 % of things I order on line but some things you can't ship in this heat. Last time I ordered a gallon of milk it ruined LOL LOL .

You have to be lookin for Creedmore ammo to eat lunch at the cool kids table I heard. LOL NOPE I don't like koolaid ..... Well I read it on the internet and they cannot put it on the internet unless it's true!
I try not to hate on the guys who are convinced the Creedmore or the Blackout are basically the best thing since sliced bread but wow. Try to convince one of them that the Creedmore is only attractive if you are limiting yourself to a short action and the only way the Blackout would be a good tool is if you loaded subsonic and shot it through a suppressor and you will have a fight on yer hands LOL

I think the fair comparison to make with the 6.5 Creedmoor is with other 6.5 cartridges OR with other short action cartridges in the 6mm-7mm range. To me, the advantage the CM has is the benefit of design lessons learned over the past 100+ years that can be taken into consideration for improved accuracy. For example, having a long enough chamber throat to allow high BC bullets to be loaded without contact with the case shoulder. They are small things but small things add up in the long distance shooting game. As a practical hunting cartridge those small things don't amount to much which is one reason I don't own a 6.5 CM. Perfect example. No one ever thinks they have to explain WHY someone should own a 270. People just know it's a great hunting caliber. But anyone not agree about a 6.5 and dang worst than the democrats crying because someone has their opinion. Now this post won't be about me finding some hunting ammo it will turn into "my creedmore is better than your creedmore" Save it.

Well said. Most people would be better off with a 260 Rem.
