they have a bunch of AICS mags that fit a low taper case

the 22-250 is great for speed with light bullets but it is a more tapered case

your target shooters are looking for heavy for caliber bullets with good BC.

and the ability to shoot them all day in a match

change the case capacity some to allow more slower burning powder better for launching heavy bullets

make it a 1:8 twist

make fit the existing Creedmoor aics mags

makes sense if your game is long range targets or PRS

Creedmoor is after all the name of a target shoot

you can save your distain for the man bun who tells you how awesome a deer rifle it is or the Shill who preaches about it in a gun rag how we all need one.

as a target gun it plays a game

I just fiind it is hard to keep up these days with the plethora of rehashed rounds. Most of them are not going to be around for long till the next fad hits the shelves. Just looking at my 223WSSM ... not easy to get brass for these days but it is still a nice little round and right up there with the swift but in a way smaller package. ow one could have just made barrels with a faster twist for it to shoot heavier bullets than the 60 to 70 grainers that my rifle maxes out at and that would have been it. All the case capacity one can use in a small caliber like that and so on. But they let it die because the next fad came up and ya have to sell new stuff.

That's the problem with these new calibers, you don't know how long they will be around and at this point I don't reload. I like the looks of the 6.5 prc for a hunting /back yard long range play around gun but whi knows if there will much ammo available in 10 years at this point. The shorter fatter/ heavier/ higher bc cartridges do have some advantages but you just don't know which one will the one that will live forever like the 270.

It may be a slightly different note, but I hemmed and hawwed for a couple of years before I decided that 6.8 SPC was the latest and greatest.
For as far as I can identify and hit a target, maybe it is.
Have your fun and spend your money.
I have .22s for squirrels, 17 HMR for ground squirrels ,.410 for bunnies, .243 for deer, 12 guage for anything that flies and 30-06 in case anyone invites me to shoot something larger.
I killed a ton of deer with the. 06 before I realized that it was overkill.
Use your own judgment. If I had invested all the money that I spent on guns over the last 40 years, I could retire fairly comfortably.


I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. O Lord please don't let me be misunderstood.

I guess my pint is that the short fatties have already been here and left and are now back again in different clothes. Probably only to be replaced again. Having had a good time with the 223 WSSM when this barrel is done for, I will try and find some 25 WSSM brass as it is the ballistic twin to the 25 Bob in a very compact package ( Browning A bolt ) then re barrel the thing. That should be a very easy to carry deer rifle.

gun rags need something to write about ,lest they start writing articles about actually learning to shoot and not just selling a gadget .
marketing wants to keep getting a paycheck and some people just think they need the next new.

cars don't need to do 140mph either the Speed limit is 70 , just make me a car that gets decent mileage and is comfortable to go 75 all day in and lasts a long time because everything can be greased
it isn't going to happen

and what hot in racing drives consumer cars to some extent , people want a fun car when they need something else for that 30 minute commute to work, but new new and fresh marketing sells stuff

also planned obsolesce is getting built in more and more

From what I'm seeing and understanding what the new cartridges are bringing new to the table is faster twist barrels, longer higher bc bullets and tighter tolerance (match grade) chambers in factory guns. Doesn't really mean anything inside 500 yds but if you want to play out at longer ranges it is s factor. You can always make a custom gun that can have these advantages but the cartridges are bring these to factory produced guns and will bring new and better bullet selections to factory loadings.

any cartridge with Creedmoor in the name is designed to play at a 1000 yard match , because that is what Creedmoor is

even in 1873 it was 800, 900 and 1000 yards

things that matter at at 1000 yards may or may not apply to a coyote at 200 yards

I just ordered 1k rounds of factory brass. MPA is building my rifle in an ultralight chassis. It’s not really what the cartridge shines at but I’m planning on running a 69gr tmk as hot as it will go on a bolt gun to chase coyotes across the hills with at night

Yah, I fell for the spc, but with just a little work I now have a .270 wsm.
