I love the caliber, but I am ignorant of Savage turnbolts as I have never had one.
I have a Ruger Hawkeye M77 Predator FTW in 6.5 Creedmoor. It doesn't have a full on bull barrel benchrest only barrel, but it does have a heavier than normal sporter profile barrel. The combo is great in my experience; easy to load for, fun to shoot.
PS 6.5 CM seems to be gaining in popularity. Recently I've been having some trouble buying new brass. Loaded ammo seems available, just a little pricy compared to what it costs me to load my own.
