Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
This doesnt even crack my top five for loud in guns I own.
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
You bought a gun with a threaded muzzle, this seems like a very easy problem to fix
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
Atmospheric conditions? Maybe low cloud cover that day?
Barrel length? Of course, a shorter barrel than a 24" barrel on a Ruger Precision in 6.5 would certainly be "louder" no matter the load
Were the folks who heard the report octogenarians? Early teen boy-scouts? Just wondering about the auditory capabilities of whomever heard whatever... :confused:

Maybe their man buns interfered with their ear pro.
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
Were you under a roof or next to a wall?
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
Outdoor 100 yard range, roofed shooting positions, concrete base., shooting off a wooden shooting bench. Yes, it was overcast, 68 degrees, humiditity above 50 percent I would say. 22" barrel, 5-right.
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
Were the other guys shooting ARs? If so good for you. Show them what a real rifle sounds like!
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
Interestingly, one was shooting a civilized version of BAR.
Re: 6.5 Creedmoor is L O U D
This wouldn't be falls township range, would it? I was there the other week shooting my new Ruger American predator in 6.5 and while loud, wasn't that loud. My ar is just as loud, if not louder.
