was this caliber easy to get to shoot tiny groups? Ive heard both yes and no's

thanks

Probably depends more on the gun than the caliber, it is basically a 243 with supposedly a little better case geometry.

All 3 of mine have been easy and pretty much shot the same loads well in all of them.

Coworker of mine has one in the RPR. His only complaint is the rifle is heavy for field carry. He is incredibly impressed with its accuracy but his opinion of accuracy may be (is) different than mine or yours. He decided on the 108 ELDs, picked one load out of the book and presto 3/4” groups. He’s happy. I guess for zero load development that’s not bad.

sounds good, i'm just going round and round on my next rifle. cant make up my mind, cant find a quick twist 22-250 i like, i have found a few 1-10 and 1-9.

the 6mm creedmoor seems about the same as far as my needs. seeing some great rifles RTS for under $1500

If you like the platform the RPR is a good choice in factory rifles. It competes with the Tikka CTR in the market. Seems like that might be right up your Tikka hating alley. Personally I prefer a more traditionally styled rifle. I don’t remember what it is but the RPR has a stupid tight twist for the 115s.

RPR is a boat anchor. im like you i like a real rifle stock

I remember Big Fitz telling me he couldn't get his to shoot for chit but like Kmon1 said, prolly not cause it's 6CM.

I remember this too, one reason Im hesitant. I cant remember who built it for him either.
He's busy with his new house but may chime in .

Check Whittaker they might have a Tikka 1:8 twist 22-250. I ordered one last year for $625 with an extra mag and soft case.

Mine is a Wilson Combat AR, recently converted from 308 to 6mm
It is very good shooter and shoots all the 3 Hornady loads to the same POI
I am pretty much running the 87g VMAX as I wanted a "light/fast" gun in the arsenel, shot one doe at 200 yards and it entered low neck an exited through the shoulder (facing me, quartering, head down)
DRT

I’ve ended up with a Browning hells canyon speed in 6cm. Haven’t shot it yet, going to try Hornady 103eldx, 108eldm, and 87vmax.

keep me posted, great rig!!

My 6 creed was the most accurate gun I had.

Isn't he getting his knee rebuilt, or something?

On my third 6 CM barrel personally and never had an issue getting them to shoot....

R26 in the 24"s and H4350 in the 20/18"s with 108 ELDs, 87 VMax, and 105 AMaxes.

Mine will shoot but the frustrating thing is the factory Hornady 108 ELDMs consistently shot better than my loads with 108 ELDMs and Berger 105 hybrids. I did find good nodes but would have expected better. I have settled on 115 DTACs and seems to like those much better. The caliber is easy to load for (ask Trigger Time) and is still one of the most popular for PRS. Mine has a Muellerworks barrel which I think is just very finicky. I love the caliber and will always have in the stable. Next barrel will be a Bartlein.

Below is an example with factory Hornady 108 ELDM Match. The group on the left is the 18th group I shot. It opened up with so many shots and needed to be cleaned.

One last comment on my 6 Creed - if I had it to do all over again I would have had Tony build it for me. The Tikka 6.5 Creed he built for me is still the most accurate rifle I've ever shot and the easiest to work up a load for...it shot everything well.

I am old school and have a 788 in 6mm Remington that shoots lights out with Chad’s Barnes TTSX reloads. Not sure how it compares to the new fancy 6mm Creed, but I am very happy with my old cheap Remmy.
