lancetkenyon Report post Posted December 30, 2014 + whatever on the Creedmoor here too. You can use it on game up to elk and bear, deer won't stand a chance, better barrel life than .243 Win or .22-250. You can load lighter 95gr. V-Max bullets for varminting, and heavy 140s for big game. Better case design on the Creedmoor for efficiency and accuracy. If you reload, no worries on finding ammo on the shelf for the Creedmoor.

Zeke-BE Report post Posted December 31, 2014 How does emCreedmoor compare recoil to the .243??? Same, a little less, can't tell??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STOMP442 Report post Posted December 31, 2014 Not enough difference for me to tell a difference but a lot of that has to do with stock design, fitment and of course the quality and type of recoil pad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or would you just keep a heavier bullet regardless with the CM for yotes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThomC Report post Posted January 4, 2015 You left out the detail of what brand of truck that you will carry the rifle in. You will get more opinions then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
