Re: 6.5 creedmoor
Serpent71: IF you were an NRA member as you should be (really), you'd know that the March 2009 issue of The American Rifleman has an extensive article on the 6.5mm Creedmoor cartridge, including loading data.
In a good bolt gun or the AR platform, it is very, very accurate, and with the good selection of high BC bullets available in 6.5mm, it's sure to be a real winner for target, varmint, and deer/antelope. The article was very positive in all regards, especially in the accuracy department.
