My thoughts exactly. I just got a new 6 creed prefit in the mail yesterday, but doesn't hurt to have another one. And I can't pass on this good of deal.
Looks great! I bit the bullet and took another chance on McGowen. I ordered a 6 creed barrel on black Friday, and it's already done. Hopefully it turns out as good as yours. Great idea on shortening the shank to save weight.
Here is one of the 77 gr tmks I recovered out of a big whitetail. The shot was 205 yds straight on through the chest. The bullet was recovered in the hind quarter.
