It is your family’s grand annual long-distance shooting match. Grandpa goes first with his favorite 30-06 rifle. POW! A perfect 1,000-yard shot, right through the bullseye. Dad makes a quick adjustment to his 308 before lining up. POW! Another perfect bullseye.
Your two honored forbearers now turn to you. They cock their eyebrows at your rifle: a 6.5 Creedmoor. “Hah!” laughs grandpa. “That’s a hippie gun.” Your dad chuckles and adds “Yeah. What are you, son? A hippie?”
“Oh, yeah?” you answer. “Could a hippie do this?” You line up your shot; but right before pulling the trigger, a thought crosses your mind. Is your ammunition up to this task? It is Winchester Super Match, after all, which delivers true competition-grade precision out of a factory-loaded package. It’s got heavy, wind-resistant 0.291 G7 BC 140 grain hollow point boat tail projectiles which minimize instability and velocity decay. It’s also got match primers, so you’ve a nearly perfect expectation for how it’s going to perform. Yes. Perhaps Winchester Match really is just the thing you need to show those old coots who isn’t a hippie.
POW! A third perfect bullseye manifests itself downrange.
Your grandfather and dad are both impressed. They even ask to see your 6.5 Creedmoor rifle afterward, over pie.
