+1. 22 Creedmoor and 6mm Creedmoor would’ve made a lot more sense in this day and age

For a few 100 fps? There is a whole lot of discussion on SH about what twist to use.
The .224, .243 WSSM whups them all.

@Jcann pretty much nailed it. Both cartridges take advantage of modern bullet tech.

Honestly as much as I appreciate the advances that have been made in cartridges, bullets and firearms I’m a dinosaur myself. I’m just not into these newfangled cartridges. I like history and tradition and I gravitate towards cartridges and platforms that either are vintage and old tech or resemble those things.

I love the advantages heavy for caliber cartridges give the shooter. Being able to shoot a 95 grain bullet out of a 22 Creedmoor at 3,200 fps just opens up so many more doors. I assume one could also shoot a 52 grain bullet in a 1:7 barrel at 3700 fps without twisting it apart as it exits the barrel.

@dennishoddy has a very good chambering in his 243 WSSM but Winchester and Browning decided to stop supporting it. As long as there is brass for this round and a properly set up barrel, there’s no reason to move toward the newer chamberings.

Lot of money for that. My old target Anschutz bolt gun can do that all day for a lot less money. Sorry but that kind of money is buying glitter not accuracy

Want a crow killer my 17 hornet could help. Great cartridge

It's obviously following the lines of the Q Fix and their knockoff the Sig Cross, but it looks like Larue did it right. Whole bunch more pics at the link.
