6.5x55 or 6.5 creedmoor

[JohnCZ]

All that’s going to do is blow Sh?t up at that speed

The PRC is a sexy little cartridge kind of doing 270Win things at a higher cost, for me hunting under 500m it just filled a non-existent gap so I sold it.

Hi everyone and thank you for your input / feedback.

I have decided to go with a 6.5x55 - my FEO actually recommended it for non toxic load calibre.
I decided that it is was prudent to agree him especially, as he was adding it my arsenal

Once again thank you and now on the look out for a 6.5 x 55!!!

Congratulations with your choice, - it's a fine one, and rich in history too
Are you going to be reloading for it?

yes mate, if you reload, rifles chambered in cartridges like the x55, or the 57s, suddenly become quite interesting indeed

I’ve heard that some Creedmoor owners are straining their barrels shooting at things that are too far away!
