    6CM vs. 6.5CM

    I guess it depends on your setup but with a 12ish lb rifle using a Nomad LT I literally couldn't tell much other than the 6 creed seemed snappier while the 6.5 had a slower slightly longer recoil impulse

    6CM vs. 6.5CM

    If you want softer shooting then a 6 BR or Dasher will be the ticket, otherwise yeah a 6 CM isn't going to be much of a difference.

    6CM vs. 6.5CM

    Not enough to matter I switched barrels back to back and shooting 112s was marginally softer than 147s from the same platfrom.

    6CM vs. 6.5CM

    Yeah I'm running a 6 creed for my match rifle and while it's a great cartridge I have a hell of a time seeing splash at longer ranges. I had a 6.5 creed barrel made up for it and there's very little difference in recoil but a Huge difference seeing splash and trace. When that 6 creed burns out...

    Yeah Dan was a PITA for sure. Shout out to John Disney too, he got me squared away last week when I needed an expedited barrel for an upcoming match. Awesome dude to deal with

    I generally agree with the get what you pay for statement, but I've been putting custom/ semi custom rifles together for over a decade, and having spent $1000 on plenty of barrels I honestly think the quality over the half dozen McGowens and several Criterions is negligible unless you're...

    McGowen barrels is solid, I just hit them up for a 6.5 creed tikka prefit and told them I needed it in 6 weeks for a match. It was delivered to my door 10 days later

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    There's strong opinions and there's facts, don't let them get in the way of your argument

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    Holy smokes 21 pages of strong opinions.. I think there's certainly some limited validity to impact testing, but there are also variables that can not be totally isolated in making a truly definitive scientific statement that a scope is good to go or not. @JohnJohnson made a great point about...

    6mm creedmoor or 6mm gt

    Thanks man your results are tracking with everyone that I've heard from so far, 2500 plus seems well documented at this point.

    Battle of the 6’s

    My current match rifle is a 6 creed, I'm sending 115 dtacs at 2900 using Peterson SRP brass, you literally can't kill the brass with that load. I'm getting fantastic first round hits at 1k but when I burn it out I'll go 6 GT or BRA simply for the barrel life. For hunting and occasional matches...

    6mm creedmoor or 6mm gt

    So now that Lapua is making 6GT brass I'm curious what the opinions are running the GT over a Dasher or BRA. The application is PRS with 112-115 dtacs for longer range windy courses in the west. I'm really looking for some tuning and barrel life reports for all three cartridges

    6.5 PRC 147 eld eld m vs 153 berger vs 156 eol

    I was sending them 3050 with my 26" barrel, the longest kill was beyond 800 yards, the 147 performed well but the bull still took a long time to die with a double lung hit. I feel the issue was lack of steam, I don't shoot elk that far anymore with anything less than a heavy 7mm. The closest...

    6.5 PRC 147 eld eld m vs 153 berger vs 156 eol
