The true question is which rifle to order out the gate - 6 creed or 22 creed. I see a lot of people touting the 22 creed right now but it’s hard to ignore the various bullet choices for 6 creed. Either way - I don’t own either caliber so it would be a good way to justify a new rifle
Does anyone have any experience with 77 grain Barnes match burners? Lots of info on TMK obviously, and discussion on sierra OTMs and being less than ideal terminally, but I don’t see a lot of people using matchburners.
@Formidilosus I saw you mention the 112s being pretty devastating in 6...
If your budget allows it, yes. I set mine up in identical stocks, initially with my 6.5 PRC with a maven and my 223 with a Swfa. I snagged another maven last month and will slap it on after the season and have them near identical, with the differences being barrel length and suppressors on the end.

While I don’t like the YouTube challenges because guys will...

Can confirm. Shot a doe there two weeks ago and she dropped on the spot. In fact the only other animal I’ve seen drop that fast was a bull elk last year when he took one to the base of the neck.
Though I’m sure if you shot with any other good bullet it would do the same. but it’s quick and...

DRT. I could hear the smack from where I was sitting and she dropped just out of sight (was shooting slightly down hill into a cutover/ravine). When I found her she had a...
