Fulton Armory 6.5 Creedmore??

Perhaps old news to others, but glancing at the FA web site they are advertising their rifles in subject caliber and for those into extended range shooting that is a heck of a cartridge. Now does the M14 platform do justice to this caliber, don't know, but would be an interesting rifle to have. Did shoot with couple guys in HP matches and they had a SAI/M1A from the factory in 243 Winchester or that is where they claimed it was from. It shot fine from my memory but it is a barrel eater from what I was told?? That 6.5Creedmore is the cats meow for ranges out to and including the 1000yd. line. If I were some 50 years or so younger would sell off some other goodies and "get me some of that..."

Short answer is no, not for service rifle.. The 6.5 would be fine for match rifle though.
6.5 cm seems like it would be a great general use round. It has low recoil, and you can get a lot better performance at longer ranges vs a 308. I plan on building one when I get back to the states.
