6.5 Creedmoor

[skeet]

But it just seems as though these new calibers are just another way to sell more rifles..You know, like all the new and improved crap that comes along

My question is always...what does the new and improved do that the old things didn't?? The answer is usually....NOTHING!!

Now to explain myself..look at the new superduper 30 cals that are out there. Other than doing about 50 ft a second more at a lot higher pressure in a new ugly plastic stocked gun that costs more..they ain't so hot!!.

the ol 6.5x55 does anything that a 260 Rem will do..the 7mm Mauser will do more than a 7-08..the 300 Ruger won't do what a 300 Win mag will do.. I guess I am just a contrarian..
