Uh.......nope...... Granted, the Creedmore makes for a fine whitetail deer gun, but there are situations where the venerable 308 is superior . There are times it's advantageous to have 30 caliber holes in a deer instead of 26 caliber holes. Plus, I think the 308 is better suited for heavier game than is the Creedmoor. There are certainly 308 loads w/ bullets that are heavier than is available in the Creedmoor. One of my favorite hunting handguns is a 260 Remington, but my 308 Win handgun still sees a lot of service. By your way of thinking, we should expect to see the Creedmoor replace the 308 at deer camps. Has your Creedmoor replaced your 308?

Just saw your response with this thread bump. My stating that 6.5 Creed does everything .308 does but better was in terms of ballistics. It will reach out to any range the .308 will but with flatter trajectory. I do think the .308 carries more energy.
