If I already have, in good quality rifles, .223, 22-250, .243, .270 and .308 why would a 6.5 Creedmoor be a good addition?

Is your 243 a fast twist. If not a the 6.5 is a way better long range gun ballistically. All relative to what you are wanting to do and why

It will become the rifle you shoot the most.

It fits right in the middle of FAST and no so fast, but high BC. Fairly quick, out of the gate, very good BC, low cost to shoot, low recoil. Win, win, win.

Just order one in a Ruger predator for my son (9), we'll see how it shoots in a week or two. Hopefully I can get the scope mounted to fit him.
