Hi does anyone know how easy it is to get factory 6.5 creedmoor in the Glasgow area.I'm willing to travel within reason.also I'm down Durham way quite regularly.thanks

I've had a couple of hundred rounds on order for about a year now (with the importer)

Doubt any RFD in the area would have stock of it as it's such a new round

I thought as much saddler.I wasn't having any luck obtaining a source.I like the look of the creedmoor and understand reloading is a must but I like the idea of having a factory source If I'm short on time

I do concur, I have purchased a Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5CM, but unable to obtain factory ammunition (I always like factory ammunition in the safe): therefore purchased the appropriate dies.

I asked a similar question either here or on another forum (can't recall which) and someone posted a link somewhere at £2/round :(

About 25k rounds of Hornady Creedmoor in various configurations hit the UK a couple of weeks ago.

But every RFD (you?) I speak to states none available!

That is not the importers fault if RFDs are not buying it.

The 6.5CM is not a mainstream cartridge so demand is going to be low regardless of how popular it is amongst some. Add to this the hefty charges for shipping to the RFD and I suspect many RFDs are not going to put the CM on the shelf, or if they do they will charge accordingly.

Perhaps if people knew which importer had them they could contact them to find out which dealers are stocking the stuff.

Edgar Brothers maybe?
