Where did the name come from?

From Wikipedia: "It was developed in partnership by Hornady Senior Ballistics Scientist, Dave Emary and Dennis DeMille, the VP of product development for Creedmoor Sports, "

And apparently I can't spell "Creedmoor" correctly.

Thanks!

I remember my Mom telling us kids that if we didn't straighten up, we'd wind up sending her to Creedmoor. LOL.

She was talking about the mental hospital, not the weapon... :0)

I thought the 6.5 Creedmoor got it’s name from the Creedmoor Shooting Position; laying on your back.

There is a very old and well known historic target shooting match at Creedmoor.
