More people are after short mag box compatibility, this allows short bolt throw, stiffer action and fast follow up shots. The Creed is designed as a comp round for sniper type matches. The old Swede is better suited as a hunting rifle in a classic Mauser.
Swede: is the f-16 fighter jet.
Creed: new joint strike/fighter do a it all long range/short range tactical cartridge.
Just because someone doesn't like short actions doesn't mean that 99% of the people who are looking at the Creed, want a short action.
