I am done spending a lot of money on rifles. I really don't need anything anymore either. We hunt in PA and don't have any long shots. Yet, I have a 300 Wby Mag, a 300 Win Mag and a 7mm Rem Mag. I just traded in a 25-06 for the 6.5 Creedmoor. I still have a 222 Rem. Our range has a max of 200 yards but we mostly shoot at 100. Lately, I develop a new load, shoot a group to see how it shoots, then burn the rest of the box on our hanging gong. That's a lot of fun.

The Creedmoor's first kill will likely by at between 20-50 yards. My son will be 16 next July, so he will be too old for our youth rifle season in October. That would be the only option for a longer shot as we would hunt a field for that. My dad could still do that, since it's open to seniors. He'll be 88 next season, so he qualifies. Not sure if he wants to be taking super long shots.
