You guys got me thinking about what 6.5's I have.
What do you guys use?
Pictures and descriptions would be great.
Another thread on 6.5's made me realize there is quite a few in this group.
My first dedicated LR specialty pistol was in a 6.5-284 XP-100. I think I literally grieved when that Krieger 8T barrel was done
I do have two 6.5's in rifles. A good friend, Darrell Holland built one for me in 6.5 Creed, and I have had friends kill antelope and elk with it. Mac's Gunworks built me a 6.5x47 Lapua, and i have used it for antelope and pd's, plus LR steel.
I don't have a good pic of Holland's rifle, but I do have one that Mac's built me.
In specialty pistols:
6.5 Creed Dominator
Rear-Grip 6.5 Creed (Loaner pistol for WY-SHOT)
6.5 Creed center-grip XP-100
6.5x47 Lapua Black Widow

Specialty Pistols -- Report from Ernie Bishop in Wyoming For those who know of me in the shooting world, you would probably know me in one of two ways: Dealer for SEB Rests or someone who does most of his competing, varminting, and or hunting with specialty pistols.
