I recently bought a 6.5 Creedmoor. And I always said, it was an answer to a question that nobody asked. Why did I finally buy one? It was something I didn't already have. I already had a 308, 30-06, 300 Win and 300 Wby. Had a 25-06, 222 Rem and a 7mm Rem Mag. Also had a 45-70. The only 6.5 I ever owned was a 6.5 Carcano, and that don't count.
I actually love the Creedmoor. It is very accurate and kicks very little. Very pleasant to shoot. And it uses half the powder as my Weatherby.
And I hunt in PA, where my shots are 20-50 yards, for the most part.
