The 6.5 cartridges have become the choice of shooters because of the high ballistic coefficients available in 6.5 mm bullets. I don’t have experience with the 6.5 Creedmore, but have used 6.5 Grendel and the 6.5 x 284 and both are excellent cartridges. I used the 6.5 x 284 to harvest an antelope at 970 yds a couple years ago.
What was the weight, calculated speed, and where did you strike the antelope?
I’ve always though that the 6.5x55 was underated.I was lucky to find a Swedish 1896 sniper rifle with a 1900 Carl Gustaf receiver dated 1900.That rifle will shoot right along side of my 700 police sniper.
That’s some real good shootin’!
