    How good is good?

    What size groups are considered bad, ok, good, and great? 100 yards center to center, I'm hoping to get thr 6.5 creed owners to chime in here. The reason I ask is I recently loaned my 6.5 to my mother (bad idea) for a bench match and she shot a .154" group, now friends and family are telling...

    6.5mm Creedmoor vs 6.5mmx47 vs .260 Rem

    I am planning on shooting 1000 yard competitions in the future so this will be my first long range rifle. I reload all my own rounds so that will not be issue. I can't decide to go with the 6.5mm Creed or the 6.5x47mm Lapua or .260 Rem. Please make this decision easier. I am leaning toward the...

    Hornady - WTF does this mean?

    I was shooting Hornady factory loads, 6.5 creedmoor 140 amax bullets. They were shot out of an AR-10 type gasser rifle with 22" Lilja heavy barrel. I didn't have a chronograph there and was just having a good time shooting. I didn't notice anything odd about the rounds. Figured the factory...

    Range Report 6.5 Creedmoor barrel length?

    I would normally just get a 26" barrel and be done with it but I will probably run it suppressed a good amount so I am looking at making it a few inches shorter. Has anyone ran the 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x47L or .260 Remington at 22" or so and regretted it? Most shooting will be less than 600 yards...

    Hornady's 6.5 Creedmoor brass quality?

    I read last night on the midwayusa.com review area for Hornady's 6.5 Creedmoor brass that it is too soft and after 1 or 2 reloading's the primer pocket grows and leaves you with loose primers. Is this accurate? There was only 3 or 4 reviews so it is a VERY small sampling. I would appreciate...

    the saga continues with my GAP built 6.5 Creedmoor

    It's a week out from the Hide Cup and I figure I should finally clean that new 6.5 Creedmoor barrel that Moon twisted up right before the last Bash. This barrel had under 300 rounds through it and it was a hammer...no break in no cleaning for any of those shots. Cleaning began and ended rather...

    This time about feeding... I have read many posts on these cartridges like many of you but can't remember anyone mentioning feeding with the Creedmoor and 6.5x47. And yes, I did try to search. No luck. I don't need to get into the x47 can be loaded hotter than the factory Creedmoor, and...

    I see that hornady has two different grades of reloading dies for the new 6.5 creedmoor. The standard series set is 32 bucks and the new dimension 2 die set id $150. Are the more expensive dies worth the extra monies? Thanks Lee
