The neck expands, but not as large as my 30TC. lol.
Better yet. Neck it up to 30 cal. Prolly shoots mythical groups...... Couldn't resist. My bad.
wonder how a 6.8 creed would turn out
Just found some information on the 7.6 creedmoor..
This is the information I'm after
There is definitely a mathematical relationship between projectiles and cartridge capacity..
When less powder in a tightened area produces better everything ..faster speed with out entering the danger zone and so on
I have yet to see anything draw my attention like the 221 fireball case...almost like what ever you put in it will perform ...its mathematical perfection
Capacity, dimensions, and case profile..
How is it no one has figured this out and developed a computer program to print out adjusted cartridges mathematically following the algorithm
What's the point of building all the guns spending all that money ..
When it now can be figured mathematically on scrap paper
I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer and even I can see the advantages of this.and I can see how we have a hand full of cartridges that stand out among them all...(why is this)? Perfection ?
Perhaps the 6.5 creedmoor case fell under the same fundamental as the ..221 rem fireball case.
Does any one know what this is called?
Thank you...

WHAT,.. "Happens" ??
NOT enough,.. "Horsepower" as, CASE Volume, is,.. too Small for, Big bullets..
Might be Okay for 100 yd BR, but useless for Hunting, as Bullet would, DROP,.. like, a Rock.
The 7 mm-08, 7 SAW, and 7 SAUM,.. Fill that, NEED,.. already !
Every week, somebody tries to, Re-Invent, the,.. Wheel,.. LOL !

I took my 6.5 SLR to Homerange's property yesterday for it's first shoot. Creedmoor - eat yer heart out! Ladder testing was brief and a node showed up at 43.5 of IMR4831 at 2780fps with a 147 Hornady. I was amazed when testing R17 that I achieved another node at a gnats over 2900fps. No pressure signs whatsoever. I'll be testing both loads at 600 over the weekend.
Group size - 3 shots - should have been 10 shots - but running out of ammo. - not measured- but one tidy hole .
Rifle is a Tikka T3X in MDT metal with a Proof steel barrel. All in tactical black, to match my helicopter...I wish.
Confession - I own a 6.5 Creedmoor...don't hate me...and it's a Ruger RPR!

I don't hate or love the CM... I'm only sick of hearing the word Creedmoor.
The CM is 30 TC necked down to 6.5 and 6 mm.
The 6.5 CM is no better than the 125 year old 6.5x55 Sweed.
6 CM is ballistically identical to the almost 70 years old 243win & 244 Remington (they changed the name to 6mm Rem when they changed the twist rate from 12" to 10" or 9") and the more recent 6 xc.
Like someone already mentioned... Re-Inventing the Wheel by putting newer tires on it.
Things most don't even know is the 6.5 CM was actually specifically made to run in Large Frame AR's and still fit the 2.800" Magazine with 140 gr bullets for longer ranges.
I would like to add to the humor while I'm at it...
Go with the 338 Greedmoor. I know of a place where they breed T-Rex's specifically to be hunted with the 338 Greedmoor because no other round can even penetrate their eyelids. The 338 GM kills them instantly.

How about the other way, 17 Creedmoor??
