    It's basically a 6.5 Saum but has slightly less case capacity. Cool that you can get factory ammo for those that don't reload. But if you do reload and want to get best velocity with the heavier pills the 6.5 Saum is the way to go.

    Point made :-)

    If it does pick up popularity I'd be keen to see how it goes. In terms of a barrel burning 6.5 for maximum velocity the 6.5-300 WBY seems to be king of the factory chambering 6.5's.

    Going off the success of the Creedmor I think this may attract people like myself who are still on the fence about it. Anyway the information for those who are interested
