Has the Creedmoor’s been Over hyped absolutely but mostly for marketing purposes. Do I think it’s a good round absolutely. Do I think the CM’s are any better as a round the 6mm rem or 260rem not really. But it’s all fun to sit back watch the bickering.


I agree. Nothing really wrong with a 6.5 creed, but it really doesn't do much, if anything, that wasn't already done by the 6.5 Swede or the .260 Remington. I was so turned off by the over-hype and stupid claims by some of the "Tommy Tactical" types when I was helping my buddy run a gun store, that I will probably never own one, and you can bet he won't either.

We alternately referred to those jackwagons as Tommy Tactical or Mil-Spec Monkeys. Then someone actually started a company called Mil-Spec Monkey.
