I've been wanting to get into long range shooting for a while now and I'm probably about to ask a dumb question. I bought the Savage Axis II Precision in 6.5 creedmoor. Bought vortex Viper pst II 5-25/50 scope. Started hunting for 6.5 creedmoor ammo and couldn't find any. Next I get an email from targetsportsusa.com and all I see is 6.5 so I grab up 200 rds. Came in today and now I realize I ordered saum 4s. Will I be able to shoot this?

6.5 SAUM is not compatible with 6.5 Creedmoor.

Here’s a pic I grabbed off google showing the 6.5’s next to each other. No the 6.5 saum will not work in your 6.5 CM.

Ammo is tough to find right now for anything but seems to be improving slightly
