    It's a simple question of weight ratios.

    I'd venture to say I've killed more deer with a 6.5 creedmoor in the past 3 years than most of you fellas will kill in the next decade. That being said it doesn't kill them any deader than any other properly placed bullet. My rig is an accurate little fucker that has little recoil and really likes factory ammo and therefore every time I go to the safe that's the one I grab.

    Do you find that the 6.5 creedmor tends to be pretty accurate and consistent when shooting long distance?

    Not yes, but hell yessss! It's like cheating after shooting a 308.
