I acquired a take off barrel from a Savage in 6.5 "Creed". I spun it onto a Marlin XS7. My plans were to make it a 260 AI barrel. However, with all the hub-ub about the Creed, I might check headspace and shoot it. I haven't shot it because I believe in the Don't Shoot the Donor philosophy. I recently acquired a Stevens in 243 that could easily become the 260 AI.

Some is Good---More is Better----Too Much is Just Right
