Let's see if it turns out to be my most accurate 6.5 rifle, or my least accurate 6.5 rifle, I am hoping that it will at least match my T-3 in 6.5x55, but if it matches my 6.5x47, I will be surprised. And given that the T-3 rifles all have the same action lengths, the short/long action cartridge thing doesn't make any difference.

If your 6.5 Creedmoor out shoots your 6.5x55 I may have to buy one. I’m using the same bullet, powder charge and brass as you are and my best group with my 6.5x55 is .192”. If the Creedmoor tops that I’m convinced.

I have a 6.5x55 Tikka t3 (still factory) scary accurate and I can seat the bullets Waaay out there because of the extraordinarily long magazine winner winner.

I always think I should sell my Tikka t3 and just keep my Sako grey wolf in .260 (they are essentially the same)...BUT that Tikka is just so nice, light and accurate. I really think I would let the Sako go first even though it is a more expensive, classier? rifle then the Tikka but dang the Sako is heavy and not anymore accurate.
