I considered the 6.5 Creedmoor for this Encore barrel as well. They had both in stock. I own two other 6.5 Creedmoors and it is a very easy caliber to load for and the factory loads are top notch. My McMillan 2K in 6.5 Creedmoor will shoot less than .5 MOA with both the Hornady 120 and 140 A-max factory loads. But in this case I was more interested in low recoil for my daughter in law, my light weight Model 7 6.5 Creedmoor whacked her too hard. And besides, I just like the 6.5 Grendel.
