But far from complete imho. Some other important 6.5mm hunting cartridges:
6.5x53R Mannlicher: Saw much use both in the Scottish Highlands and in Africa. The first small bore widely used for hunting.
The developed famous 6.5x54 Mannlicher – Schoenauer was used worldwide by famous big game hunters. It can be loaded to equal the Creedmare.
The 6.5x57 and the 6.5x57R are very popular in central Europe. Only recently replaced in part by the 6.4x55 SE.
The 6.5x68 does the same as all the 6.5mm “Magnum” cartridges mentioned though it predates them by decades.




But old cartridges don't sell new plastic fantastic rifles to guys needing the latest fad!

Interesting point on the 6.5x54 MS being able to match the unmentionable.

All the x53, x54, x55, x57, x64, x65, /06, x68, magnums can equal or exceed that newest fad must have ...
