Honest question. Why the hate? I don’t know much about the cartridge.
Not sure where you heard THAT one.6.5CM got its name from how long you need your hair to be to grow the manbun
I have a .260 remington that I have been working with.Do many of you shoot 6.5? I shoot 6.5x55 which is longer but ballistically very similar to the 6.5 Creedmoor. 6.5 anything is accurate at long range and plenty powerful for deer sized game. It has less recoil than the .30s. The only drawback I see is if you don't reload, you can't buy surplus military ammo.
As my college history professor used to say,It’s mostly a joke. It’s a great cartridge. Its basically like how Jeff Gordon was received by Dale Earnhardt fans when he came on the scene. He was young and flashy and quick. But kind of a wimpy California kid, compared to the intimidator. Wimps win races though.
6.5 has less recoil, shoots flatter, and bucks the wind better at further distances. It’s very capable as a thousand yard + competition cartridge, whereas a lot of us think of 308 as a 6-800 yard cartridge. 6.5 is more expensive and less available. And the 308 hits harder out to around 500 yards.
I think one of the reasons 6.5 gets a lot of pushback is because there aren’t a lot of places on the east side of the country where the long range benefits are going to come into play. Most of us probably don’t have an option to shoot past 100 yards. But a lot of people just had to jump on that bandwagon and dump the 308. So that was kind of silly. I’ll take the 308 for New England. If I lived in Wyoming I’d consider the 6.5.
Please don't tell me that kid looked at .40 on the shelf as well........Honest question. Why the hate? I don’t know much about the cartridge.
Does 6.5 also drink Pepsi Max?It’s mostly a joke. It’s a great cartridge. Its basically like how Jeff Gordon was received by Dale Earnhardt fans when he came on the scene. He was young and flashy and quick. But kind of a wimpy California kid, compared to the intimidator. Wimps win races though.

CmOn 6.5?
Or...?
Did the tiara say 6.5 is the bestAbout a week ago as I was going into the gym I saw a mom & her 6-7 year old boy leaving, the boy was wearing a skirt and a tiara - it was freaking disturbing.
“It’s new so it has to suck”Honest question. Why the hate? I don’t know much about the cartridge.
Is that what your kids says?Did the tiara say 6.5 is the best
No i gave him a man bun skully combo kit that says 6.5 is too mainstream and a vape penIs that what your kids says?
Also there’s a required waiting period of extreme suspicion and irrational prejudice for anything new. That’s the New England way. We don’t do hospitality like they do down south…with anything.Please don't tell me that kid looked at .40 on the shelf as well........
