Local guy called me to ask if his buddy could use my 100 yard range soon to sight in a new rifle. Yep...it’s a CM. Is anyone buying ANYTHING else these days? Geez!

Well it looks like I’m getting a pair of 257 Roberts. How’s that?

Have to admit that the cartridge design and marketing was about the best any of us have ever seen. And I don’t hate the cartridge at all, but except for one 270 recently, all I see are 6.5 CMs. Kinda like somebody keeps playing the same old song over and over.
I think it makes me like my 260 even more, just because it’s different.

If they still have to ask then they're too stupid to understand the answers that have been posted a thousand+ times. Nobody likes a winner.

What is stupid are the fanboys that think it’s the end all be all of cartridges.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I obviously need to sell my 6.5CM and replace it with a real man's rifle. What caliber would qualify for me to get my man card back?

Before the "pandemic" I was buying 6.5 CM FMJ for $11.00 a box on Midway. Try and do that with your oddball calibers. Now if your a weekend hunter that shoots one box a year maybe that don't matter, I shoot nearly every day so it does to me. I dont care what anyone thinks of me so call me what you want for shooting one, I don't feel the need to be different just to be different.

Incorrect spelling done on purpose. Man it’s not the post here, it’s the genuine effing idiots in public who actually say the word Creedmoor as if they’ve witnessed one of gods miracles. I heard a guy talking about trading his bow for a Creedmoor, not which Creedmoor or even what rifle, he didn’t know what the rifle was. Just the word “Creedmoor “. He was so damn proud of himself. This is the stupidity that makes me want to puke. For the record I think it’s a great round with the best factory support ever seen. It’s deserves accolades, from people who understand why.
