What are you planning on hunting with it in ur trophy rich state :yeah:
I run a bolt and gas in 6.5 since 2007. Still using them.
Carbide8 said:Awesome. Best part about cm is it doesnt break the bank shooting it.
Ive never used the hslr's but have multiple hst's and pst's. What features do you like over the nxs? Good luck on that hunt if you draw.

I have been so wrapped up in my Muzzleloaders that i doubt i will even mess with the 6.5 Stock issue this year? I worked up a few different reloads, one of my favorites is the 120 Grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullet and H-4350 powder, I bought a Leupold VX-2 4-12 Scope with CDS system, i sent Leupold my data and had a set of Custom turrets built for the 120 Grain ballistic tip load. I think i will end up going with a Bell & Carlson Medalist stock, but probably not this year. The little 6.5 Creed is the little rifle that could, i killed a nice Cow elk last year with mine at just over 300 yards
