Finally picked up the Creedmoor this afternoon.
I got it on paper at 25 yards and moved to 100
First shot was low left so I made an adjustment and shot the three in the triangle with the white square aiming point. .6875 X 3
Added two more and it opened to 1.375.
First try with this rifle and a 130 grain AccuBond load I put together.
Actually pleased with this result and would happily hunt deer with this rifle as is.

My wife has one in .308. Stupid accurate rifle. I put a fancy walnut stock on it from Richards Microfit and glass bedded 2 winters ago. Even more stupid accurate and a lot prettier and better handling from field positions. If the 6.5 Creed had been available at the time she got hers, would have been the caliber. It is one of 3 rifles in my house that will shoot 1MOA +/- with almost any load I whip up. The other 2 are a national match AR 15 and a freak of an M1917 sporter from 1918. I expect it out of the match AR and the Savage, the other one is just a freak of nature I rescued from a pawn shop for a buck and a quarter to use as a donor action until I fired it.

I'm sure you will enjoy this rifle for years to come. Not fancy as they come from the factory, but they sure shoot.
