  1. Sweet setup! I was already sold on 6.5CM, but after getting to see many of your 6.5AR hog hunt vids, I am kicking myself for not starting on my own build sooner. Thanks for your positings. I'm currently using your videos as well as some research on building my own AR setup. Currently using a DPMS GENII .308 as a foundation build and then adding a 22" Criterion hybrid 6.5CM barrel. Just trying to decide on what rails to use. 15" AP hand-guard or a 15" Midwest Industries hand-guard, either in M-LOK. Already added a Geissele SSA-E trigger and Magpul PRSGen3 for a stock.

  2. Good stuff Bud! I have my Bergara B-14 HMR in hand now in 6.5. Have settled on a Vortex Viper PST gen II 5x25x50 33MM scope on an evolution gun works 20 MOA rail. Will use Vortex rings. Not gonna be a fast shooter like your rig for sure but will be a nightmare for prairie dogs, coyotes and deer. Thanks for the one year review and I know the land owner really appreciates what you're doing.

  3. That is an awesome vid review. Thank you so much. I never thought Aero Precision was very good but you've definitely changed my mind. I can't wait to save up and build a 6.5 creed

  4. Nice setup. Looking for that article you mentioned at 4:40 though. I’m currently trying to soak up info on calibers, especially 6.5, in preparation for picking out a new bolt gun.

    I’m enjoying your hunts, commentary, and ballistic notes. Keep up the good work, sir.

  5. Thoroughly enjoy all your videos ! I have a Ruger Precision in 6.5 creedmoor, and I’m now starting an AR-10 build in 6.5 creedmoor also. This will be a dedicated night time hog/coyote rifle. Thanks for the review !
