Fierce Firearms CT Mini Rogue 2.0 6.5 CM 16" Rifle

A 16 inch 6.5 Creedmoor is a specific tool, and the CT Mini Rogue 2.0 is a good example of it. The short barrel gives up some velocity to a 24 inch tube, but the rifle handles like a carbine, rides in a truck or a blind without a fight, and points fast when something walks out at forty yards instead of four hundred. The 6.5 Creedmoor still shoots flat enough at hunting distances that the trade is an easy one to accept.

Fierce built the Mini Rogue as the compact member of its Rogue line, a bolt action aimed at hunters who spend more of the day walking than shooting. The black finish keeps it quiet in the field and the short overall package means the rifle stays out of brush and off rocks. The 6.5 Creedmoor is the most supported hunting and target cartridge of the last fifteen years, so ammunition, dies and load data are everywhere and every shop has something on the shelf for it. That matters more in practice than most spec sheet numbers do when you are trying to find a load your rifle likes.
