You’re arguing with yourself and your imaginary friends here. Nobody cares that you like your Swede better than the creed. Millions of people bought the Creed because of what it can do, and the fact so many cartridges do the same thing proves what the Creed does is useful for a lot of folks.

You must care. Otherwise you wouldn't have rogered up your weak replies time after time. Millions bought into the hype despite there being calibers already available that did exactly the same thing.

This deviation is why:

1) I hate the fact so many blogs like this one insist on regurgitating the same crap about 308 vs. 6.5 creed still after so many years - it ONLY serves as a breeding ground for luddites to thump their chest that “my old cartridge is still as good...” and no other purpose.

I haven't made a single mention about the 308 on this thread. However the OP did and if you really had as much angst about it then why are you even on this thread? Somebody hold a gun on you or something? And you still have not given a single reason why the Creed is superior to the Swede. Even the loading data shows there is no benefit.

2) I had Flags on my ignore list for several years. I’m honestly not sure how that was undone, and I’m quite disappointed to find it was.

Then do us both a favor and put me back on it. You must not be that "disappointed" because you have been commenting right along even on posts where I was the OP. So I'm hoisting a BS flag on you again.
