.33 Creedmoor
Let’s reintroduce the .318 Westley Richards as the .33 Creedmoor. It will be the next best thing since sliced bread

Or just start building rifles in 338/06 A square, or Heaven forbid 318 WR.

Yeah but you have to get the kids interested! Seriously though my problem is I want a .318 but I really want one from Westley Richards

Will never happen; no major maker is going to make .330 bullets.
I make a .318 Nitro Express; uses .338 bullets. And 30-06 Brass.

Tom, Hornady makes 205 gr. .330 bullets, Graffs has them.

Wish someone would make a factory round with the 6.5-284 case necked up to 7mm...........might be a hit.

Maybe put that round in a lever action too.

Everything old is new again. Isn’t marketing great?

If you could build a lever gun with a box magazine so you could use all spire point Bullets, solid frame for scope mounting, and a one piece stock that would be more stable and easier to bed you would have something.

While you are at it, make that box magazine detachable for ease of loading and unloading with a counter showing in the frame so you know how many rounds are in the rifle at a glance.

Maybe? such a lever gun could have a model number that starts with an 8.

There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

Is the 22 Nosler not a 5.56 based on. Creedmor case? I do not know. I ask honestly.

I wish Winchester would bring back the Model 88 and Sako would bring back the Finnwolf and chamber them in the 6.5 Creedmoor, .25-284, .338 Federal and any other rounds they want to. I would definitely buy one in .25-284

I get the feeling that some of you are making fun of the Creedmoor. Why, I met a guy in a bar that insists his brother-in-law has a 6.5 that will drop only an inch in a mile! It's magic, I tell you. I was so impressed I needed another drink.
