Dude relax. It’s been a joke since the Creedmoor came out with people misspelling it.

So I am going to ask what's the difference the between the 6.5 Creedmoor getting the press it does today vs what the 270 Win, 308 win and 30/06 got back in the day?
Other than there are better communication tools than just gun rags.
I built my 2 Daughters one for each of them and I have watched them do things with them over the past few years that must guys with anything would not be able to do.
I have taken hundreds of deer with anything from a bow, 222 rem up to a 375 ultra mag. Seen probably 500 or more deer taken in person. If you are going to tell me a 6.5 Creedmoor doesn't work or is not good or whatever I will flat out tell you that you don't know what you are talking about.
Name another caliber that is 1000 yard capable on deer and elk out of a 22 inch barrel rifle that weighs under 9lbs with a scope, suppressor, bipod, sling and 9 shells on the stock that kicks like a 243 win without a suppressor on it?
That you can also get just about any brand of brass and small rifle primer or large rifle primer is available. That you can also go to just about any store and buy premium factory ammo?
Can you name one?
Good luck finding a good selection on 260 ammo on the shelf or brass that's as easy to find. 6.5 Creedmoor is what the 260 should have been in the first place.
So guys can thump their chest let their egos talk at the end of the day the deer and elk don't care. You don't matter to them.
If you don't want a Creedmoor don't buy one if you are going to sit and run one down because you don't like the marketing or hype again you don't know what you are talking about.

Just seems like we’re just circling on a real small track here.
Yeah, given recoil limits it is only the first circle or two after the splash.
