Y’all make me laugh with the “Creedmore” stuff. It reminds me of anything named “Rigby” My dog is named Rigby. Sometimes imperialist supremacism is just wrong.

Ammo cost for us handloaders is components. I get everyone wants to save a dollar or three but if a rifles likes something buy (or load) a case.
Only hits count.

I have to say .243 in my opinion. Reason I say that is the ballistics between it and .308 aren't that much.

really !!!!!! most of them . but you'll find any body that loves "choice" as much as me . there are so many that there is choice for each critter and how you hunt it . x2 That's how I end up with most of my guns. I dream of the day I'll get to hunt some certain critter in some certain setting and get a gun for that specific purpose. Then I use it to go deer hunting in the same place I've hunted for years. It's nice to dream.

Not that I have a much skin in the fight, but someone saying a certain caliber is gay does not sit well with me. Reminds me of the 9mm vs .45 debates everyone loves to have...but here's my take on it:
I would imagine if you were to ask somebody that has been in an actual combat situation (probably lots of folks on here, in fact: veterans, police officers, etc...or other people that have worked closely with people's brains, eyeballs and vital organs going splat), I doubt they would agree with you when you tell them that certain high powered projectiles are "gay" compared to others.
Its an inside joke. Apparently, you're not inside so get over it.

Its an inside joke. Apparently, you're not inside so get over it. I’ll try to come to terms that I haven’t been initiated into the Aldeer elitist society of secret circles. I guess I need to devote more time to analyzing members posts and conversations on a regular basis so I don’t look so socially inept. I will try to get over the fact that I have not been lucky enough to gain access into the “inside” level of aldeer, but I’m not making any promise

I mean, surely if there was an inside section of aldeer it would have been posted by skinny...like a sticky or something? I understand if you have one of the aldeer paying accounts but for those of us with the free access, we just aren’t always up to speed on the latest You should pony up the 💰 for Skinny so you will understand the secret society stuff. Its like the illuminati, only better.

6.5 Creed is a good round but good lord, it's got to be the most over hyped, over marketed round on the planet. Sure, it's "efficient" and can handle the long bullets in a short action but it ain't faster than a pile of other 6.5s already out there.
