Need Help?Creedmoor Rifles Under $500
A few years back, you would have been hard-pressed to find a 6.5 Creedmoor deer rifle in hunting camps around the country. You probably would have found a few 7mm Remington Magnums and the flat-shooting 7mm-08 Remington — especially in Texas and along the Southeast.
But the times have changed! Creedmoors are now some of the most popular rifles to hunt deer with. You'll find several 6.5 Creedmoors in most deer camps. The 6.5 might even be the cartridge that dominates the slots in the gun rack.
But why is that?
- It’s a relatively flat shooter that packs just the right amount of wallop for big game, especially white-tailed deer hunting.
- It’s also a cartridge that’s easy to find different ammunition loads for, not to mention several different rifle models.
