Been contemplating re-barreling a 6.5 creed to a 6mm creed....just because. Finally decide to just shoot some zoomies, sweet whamadine, craaaazyyyyy fast 80 grain HHT's of of this beast. Maybe try to shoot the barrel out before I spend the money to re-barrel the rifle.
Figured, while I'm at it....might as well up-grade the brass to some sweet shiny, sexy, make a man drool.... Peterson Brass.
200 80 gr HHT and 300 new Peterson brass ordered and inbound.
Rifle is a Savage Stealth Model 10 with 26" barrel. Topped with an older nightforce SHV 5-20. Haven't shot this rifle in few years as it is kind of heavy and I have a lot of lighter rifles to hunt with. I imagine it will become a bench gun and give me a reason to just go and punch paper or steel at the range. Heck...maybe a coyote gun with this new speedster set-up of a round. This rifle was stupid accurate with 140 grain accubonds......I can't wait to see the bug holes it punches with these speedsters.
I tell you.....Hammers have really changed the way I think about rifles. Rather than just change calibers, a guy can just go ultra light on the bullet and shoot speeds that were otherwise not obtainable. Why spend the money to re-barrel a rifle when I can shoot 6 mm speeds with a 6.5 gun. I THINK I'M IN LOVE..........
