Seriously, If that gun didn't have that title and was a bit bigger, I would buy one, sexy lookin rifle.
What title???? Savage? They make one of the best guns on the market right now in their class. I would buy one in a heartbeat if I could afford it.

What made you pick the CM over the .260 Rem?
Superior BC, similar reload ability, Uniqueness, *censored* NAME :tup:

CM has a BC of .585 with a factory 140gr hornady A-max, that's how.

The BC comes from the bullet,not the cartridge. Put that 140gr Amax into a .260 Rem hull and it'll have the same .585 BC.
I was just wondering what the reasoning for the choice was. IMO there isn't a lick of difference between the two. Either is a nice pick. I totally get owning something unique that you won't see 40 of on opening day.
If you're gonna load you own,look at Bergers 140gr VLD. Its got a BC of .612

Yeah but I don't think Hornady does any 260 Rem :(. But hey thanks for the reload advice, But yeah, uniqueness had a lot to do with it, I doubt in my life time I'll ever hunt with someone with a lightweight savage in 6.5 Creedmoor, let alone somebody with a 6.5 CM.

Ok ok, I guess they're sexy enough, and yes, I think it's time the 6.5 gets the attention it deserves by being chambered in more popular rifles. Savage chambers they're guns and you still would not believe how long, how many phone calls, how many "out of stocks" I encountered trying to find this particular gun in 6.5 CM. I after awhile I almost settled for a .243, glad I didn't now! If you want one by Modern rifle you had better start looking now fellas! lol

You think you got a hard-to-get gun, just try to get a Savage .17 Hornet! Hornady has been advertising the ammo for months now, but Savage, who is supposed to be producing the mythical rifle has yet to come across. Even Cabela's, who are usually among the first to get a new offering, in their last big Savage sale listed every caliber EXCEPT the 17 Hornet.

Should be a handy-dandy rig. I see a lot of magnumb guys on here and light-done-right handy-dandy rigs trump all of their stuff. A rifle belongs in your hands, not on your back. Good on you.:tup:

Forgot to ask... Where'd you pick it up? And how much?
Ammo and Arms in Pennsylvania, actually found the listing on Gunsamerica.com, paid $799 I'm pretty sure?.....maybe $820, it was one or the other, but I was willing to pay $900 for the creedmoor if I could find it! lol The guy said he had two left if anyone's interested!
