Guys,
The 6.5 Creedmoor is basically identical to the .260 Remington. The .260 has a very tiny bit more case capacity, but the net result is analogous to the difference we see between "thick" or "thin" brass in 260/308, or a "fast" or "slow" barrel, or being able to seat a bullet out another 0.10" because of throat length. In short, they are ballistically identical. I see more variation .260 rifle to .260 rifle than I saw from the 6.5 CM barrel on the T2K to the .260 barrel on my AI.
With the Creedmoor, you can buy factory ammo from Hornady but also only get brass from them. In .260, there are a lot more brass choices.
It's not true that I dumped the 6.5x47 for the 6.5 CM. I had the opportunity to test both. In the end, I kept the .260 Rem AI-AW set up and got rid of the 6.5x47 and 6.5 CM barrels.
