I am an owner of both a 260 and a 6.5 Creedmoor and I was wondering why anyone would buy a 260 when a Creedmoor was a available? I have had the Savage 12 LRP in 6.5CM for close to 2 years and it is easy to load for, shoots the 140's great, and you can buy match ammo cheap and reload it.
I have had the 260 for a year and it seems very picky on the loads, likes 120's alot better than 140's, and if I didnt reload I would have to sell it because I couldnt afford ammo!
I know there has got to be something I am missing here. I know Lapua makes brass for the 260, but I reload factory brass after I shoot them in the 6.5 and I dont see a need for high dollar brass. I have reloaded some 6.5's at least 8 times and still going. They are ery accurate with the IMR4350.
I am thinking about rebarreling it in 6.5 CM. What do you guys think? Any input would be appreciated.
