cabelas savage 10T SR in 6.5 creedmoore

[wardlaw90]

I've notice there is not a lot of reviews on this gun, was wondering what people think about it, the pros and cons of this rifle. I've already purchased the gun and I'm waiting to pick it up. I'm putting a vortex hr long rang scope 4x16x50 and a harris bipod. I'm mainly using this gun for deer hunting with target shooting on the side. Also what is a good factory 6.5 load to run thru it. I picked up fusion bullets in 140 grain because they where cheap, but would like to eventually get into long distance target shooting and will only use factory ammo. I do not have the time or money to reload.

I own that model in 308. great gun. It would be heavy to carry around all day for hunting ... its a tactical rifle. I have only shot it from a bench rest.

My 6.5 loves Hornady 140 grain

Thanks

My 6.5 likes the Hornady 120grn a-max. Groups double in size with 140's

I have the 10t just not the threaded barrel version in .308. It's been a great rifle.

I have a 10T not SR in 6.5 Creedmoor, and it shoots as many 1/2 inch groups as it does 3/4 groups. I love it.
It shoots 143 ELDX best, Next best is the 140 Winchester Match, then the 140 ELD-M. It doesn't seem to like the 129 SST very much.
