Truth is, it don't, but you'll never hear one of the fanboys admit that. They all swear they're running around with .264 Win Mag killing power packed into that creedless case.


Factory loaded, match grade accurate, premium (high BC) bullet, hunting ammunition at most wal marts, academy, and local mom and pop.

I ‘like’ the 7-08 better overall, and some others as well. The creedmoor doesn’t do anything I can’t do by loading for MANY others. It does do it over the counter, often cheaper, and generally with less recoil and blast, with more bullet than a 243 or 257/25-06. On game, it’s just a Swede, nothing more or less. Stuff dies, but it don’t usually die any more spectacularly than other stuff, and often less so. If the creed wasn’t so cheap and easy to max out over the counter, most wouldn’t have one, dang how it kills.
