Won't be any good! Might be over your limit with on shot. Would be a poachers dream though.

That's where you wrong, again, I'm not tearing down the Needmoor as I have said numerous times I think it's a great round, As I said earlier it's folks like you ( and many others) with the " I have the ballistic superior end all gun that will do anything " is where I have the problem, You are the one that turned this in to the dumpster fire with all your " Superior " posts, It was a decent discussion up until then, You and many others that I have had this same discussion with all have the same down fall, Without a Laser Range Finder and a Kestrel you couldn't hit a pop can at 100 yards ( Hence my challenge )and yes I have a range finder but I do not use a kestrel, with that being said if my battery goes dead I still have the ability to range targets with great accuracy and a Kestrel to me is useless as it only reads wind where you are, I will not risk a hunt on a piece of electronics no matter what they cost or how good they are supposed to be. And you comparing me to Mud is a desperate grasp for you to save some face here but it's a failed attempt, Have a good dayMud was often found tearing apart the Creedmoor much like you @ButterBean . Better watch who you compare people too when you have more in common with others than you may realize . I'm out of this dumpster fire though.
Makes me want to promote "7 minute abs" videosThe 7 CM will be the end-all, be-all. It'll probably open a small black hole as it passes through the air and actually suck deer into it.

I like to pour my spiced runm over ice because I like to drink it cold. But I suppose a real pirate would tell me I'm a Sissy unless I drink it straight out of the bottle. That's what a lot of these conversations about the creedmore are like.
50 BMG case with a .582 rebated rim to fit in a standard repeater, necked down to 7mm with a 57 degree shoulder. It will send a 195 EOL at 5000 fps out of a 24" barrel.7 Sherman creedmoor Ackley improved
Can Kill Elk at 2 miles, bullets ignore the wind, also the elk is already cooked when you get there.50 BMG case with a .582 rebated rim to fit in a standard repeater, necked down to 7mm with a 57 degree shoulder. It will send a 195 EOL at 5000 fps out of a 24" barrel.
Note: should not be used in fire prone areas as the muzzle blast will ignite any grass within 40 ft of the muzzle. Also useful for grilling in the woods if you prefer steaks charred on the outside and red in the middle.
Ok I must of missed something! BB: you actually have feelings? Such a sensitive guy and bruises so easily. Holy cow, do you need a hug from these posts?Not very impressive to say the least, and I have no idea why you think my feelings would be hurt

I'm aware of the .300wm, .338lapua and .50BMG being adopted as Sniper rounds.
I think one recent evolution of sniper rifles has been a switch barrel system adopted.
It had 3 barrel s I think. One being b.308 for practice and use, a .300 magnum variant and one other. (Just found link)
I have a .300wm in a sporter and quite like it among others.
I can't vouch for the accuracy of that video but I take it the system vhas been adopted by the US military.
No 6.5cm in the contract package.
As for my cartridge choices I read, listen, research, consider and form an opinion.
Then I read enough to convince myself that the opinion I formed meets my requirements, wants needs and desires.
Then I read enough supporting evidence (disregarding the rest) to convince MYSELF, that my choice fits my requirements of the time or intended purpose.
The Big Boy above has it right.
The Creedmoor and it's High BC projectiles perform on paper.
Inside 500yards I've compared enough reviews to show the 7mm-08 is the better hunting round and that both probably should be limited to 500 for hunting!
For drop, drift, energy and velocity the 7mm-08 has a slight advantage over 6.5cm.
For long range target the 6.5cm performs in its class and does what it was designed for.
This however being a Long Range Hunting forum I suggest the 6.5 Creedmor is discounted as a long range Hunting round. By hunting I would suggest Coyote and bigger.
It's probably a good varmint round with the right projectiles.
I would consider it for hunting within reasonable ranges on small game with appropriate projectiles.
It probably has a place for junior hunters and the recoil sensitive but for hunting as always shot placement is paramount.
For now, I don't have a use for it and I can't help but make fun of it, Man Buns and the Latte crowd.
