"The Barska Varmint 6-24x42 AO Rifle Scope with Mil-Dot Reticle is designed for a variety of calibers and is generally a good option for medium to long-range shooting. It should work well on a 6.5 Creedmoor, as this scope can handle the recoil typically associated with this caliber.

However, whether it will hold zero consistently depends on factors like proper mounting, ensuring the scope is securely attached to the rifle, and the quality of the rings and base. If mounted properly, this scope should hold zero, but if you're using it with heavy recoil, it's important to use high-quality mounts and rings to ensure stability."
