Go for it , it will be fun to make the journey with you.

I think the one you want is Coriolis effect... or were going for something like the clitoris effect ??

Different ball game bud. But from what we here you are intimately familiar with...

10-4 I’ll have to read up and see if it’ll affect the 6.5 Creedmoor ( hint hint).

So, researching as I usually do before a big purchase. I have purchased the one that’ll get me out to 1K. I had a budget of $1000 to spend on the rifle itself plus optics . So, some of the runner ups were .....

Remington 700 5R in 6.5 Creedmoor
Ruger Precision In 6.5 Creedmoor
Howa 1500. In 6.5 Creedmoor

As you can see, I chose the 6.5mm Creedmoor cartridge to get me out there. Other contenders were 260 Rem, 6mm Creedmoor, and 300 Win Mag. I chose the 6.5 because of lighter recoil and better ballistics with good aftermarket support.

So, for the rifle I chose...... I went with something different than what you normally see out on the line. I like to be different but, I need to be in this fight. This rifle has good reviews and the features it comes with for the price..... it’s untouchable (imho).

I went with the Bergara B14 HMR In 6.5 Crd

Here is a snippet from the manufacturer’s website....

“Although there are many rifles on the market today, we wanted to focus on one thing: quality. Our B-14 rifles were inspired by the desire to bring the quality that Bergara was known for in the custom rifle world to production rifles made for all hunters. In the B-14 rifle, you will find a level of craftsmanship that surpasses all of the other production hunting rifles on the market.
The B-14 HMR rifle features our integrated mini-chassis molded into the stock to give the rifle repeatable bedding and accuracy. It also supports a fully free-floated BERGARA barrel to achieve optimal precision. The Bergara Hunting and Match rifles are built to offer a rifle for both hunters and competition shooters that can perform incredibly in either situation. The stock features an adjustable cheekpiece and length of pull spacers. Built in Spain at our highly automated and efficient barrel factory, this rifle delivers a level of quality and performance that is unmatched in its price range.

The world-renowned Bergara barrel on this long range precision rifle is complemented by our own super-smooth B-14 Action, which is a two-lug system with a Sako-style extractor and a coned bolt nose and breech to ensure a smooth feeding and extraction of the cartridge. It’s also outfitted with a Bergara curved trigger we designed to guarantee a crisp, clean pull every time you fire the rifle. The trigger comes set at about three pounds. It has been factory drilled and tapped to fit Remington 700 style rings and bases.

A 5-round AICS compatible detachable magazine is standard with our HMR rifle. QD flush cups are included in the stock to allow for easy attachment and detachment of slings.”

CALIBER: 6,5 Creedmoor
BARREL LENGTH: 22”
TWIST: 1:8”

All I need to do is add a Scope package and bipod and I’m ready to rock!
