Like the title,
My name can be put in the membership book of 6.5 Creedmoor owners now.
Brought home a Ruger American Predator in that 6.5 Creedmoor & now all I need is a proper scope for it. Gotta go scope shopping soon.

You are cook cucumber now, Oakley glasses makes it more accurate. Just kidding I have one to and I love it. I think it shines with the heavy bullets. Now I want a 6 CR.

Congrats and welcome to the club! I bought a 6.5 grendel late last year. Now own two more! Have had my eye on the 6.5CM for a couple years. Think it’s a great cartridge and really brings a lot to the table, especially compared to .308.

I’ve used a Ruger 77 in 6.5 Rem Mag for 20+ years. Works great, but I’ve never been able to use the heavier bullets because of the short magazine. Light bullets are accurate enough, but the light jackets don’t hold together on larger deer. Heck of a good coyote rifle though!

So as scopes go,
Any recommendations for me to look at.

Right now I'm thinking of something in a Vortex,
Or a higher end Nikon with the BDC reticle.
