How dumb is a 6.5 creed pistol?

if you like “pistols”….. they are pretty dang smart imo.

this is a specialty pistol section of the forum. Might be several “dumb” things or people around.:peace::peace:

Count me as one of those dumb people I guess

Was wondering the same thing. How practical would it be? But have no experience in this particular genre of shooting.

We regularly shoot and hunt with rifle calipers chambered for our specialty pistols. The 6.5 creed is a very practical chambering for our platforms.

there are amongst us SP shooters reaching 1000 yard targets and beyond. I’m not one of those guys but like ringing steel at 500.

About as "dumb" as a 6.5 Creed SBR, and there are a pile of them in use with barrels 12.5", and even shorter.

I have seen SP's chambered in much larger cal's in use as well. IYKYK

Like Bob Cat I am from Missouri. Some where between 15" and just shy of 16" would be my choice. Then add a Harrel Brake. The removable Brake does not count on the length, at least here.
My Nosler M48 has I believe a 15" Barrel, Plus the Harrel 4 Gill Brake. Works just fine.
