Why shoot a sissy rifle?

[unclecroc]

This is what you look like bragging about your 6.5 creed.- from a 6mm creed shooter that I personally may or may not know.

I had to convince my buddy, who despises the 6.5 CM, that it was a great round for my kids. Of course, I love shooting it!

Is sissy rifle limited to the 6.5CM? Yall have me worried I may have doubled down on sissy, with some of the other cartridges I shoot.

I can pee farther than you

I sure hope so! With my prostate I even have to take the sit down approach at times to keep from peeing on my toes.

There is a fine line there apparently.
On one side it's far too much caliber and by shooting it you are perhaps insecure or compensating for something.
On the other side it's far too underpowered and puny. Incapable of knocking a setting hen off her nest.

I have one in an AR 10 and with reluctance I admit I use it occasionally. I'm ashamed to say I have larger and smaller calibers too that I use regularly.

You'll have to decide which side you're on

I got mine for my wife to hunt plains game in Africa. It has now been improved to a BeanMore so I can shoot it.

Even head stamped brass available.

I'm actually a little concerned my new 6.5 Creedmoor kicks too much for me.

What muzzle brake to tame the 6.5 Creed?


Should I be stepping down to the 6 or 22 or even 223! Thinking large bull elk out to a mile.

That's inconvenient for sure. So what's the science again of restriction = pressure...?

If you turn the gun around you won't feel the recoil so much. (seriously not serious )

Evidently I have a lot of restriction and very little pressure!

Don't confuse sissy with small there's a difference

I'm mostly using, 130 Grain ELD-M's and 130 gr. H-VLDS @ 2,800 FPS and with, a PVA "Back Country" Brake, It's,.. a Puddy Cat !

 

[nksmfamjp]

I'm trying 129gr ABLR's….maybe they will kick less! ….or I'll call PVA about a brake!

For clarity, my concern is not so much the tears generated, but just seeing my target in the scope after the shot!
