So the 25 creedmoor has been released.
Does it have a place or is it redundant in the hunting world?

Will @Bob Nelson 35Whelen be building a modern .25 and sporting a ManBun?

Will it help bring more variety of .25 cal projectiles online
 
I have two 6.5 creeds, it’s not the best round and certainly not the worst. I don’t think the advantages to the 25 in most of my use cases are quite enough for me to switch over.

Chris it will still be a man in just in 25 cal
If'n I'd known about the new 130+gn that were coming out in 25 cal I would have got a 1:8 twist barrel. A 131gn long aerodynamic bullets at 3,000fps would hold their velocity a long long way out.
As is John Barsness said the 25-06 is a better long range cartridge than the 6.5 creede.
Why do they just want to try and reinvent the wheel.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
