It's the 'new kid on the block' as now the Creedmoor has that place.
It uses high quality Lapua brass and tends to be very accurate, and it is efficient, and effective. YET, so close to the 6.5-08.
If one wants performance, it will not hang trajectory/energy wise w/the 264.
That said, if one's shooting dictates the 47 has the goods, then it's fine.
After doing my recent 260 on a heavier bbl, I plan to do a 6.5 on a sporter, likely either another 260 or perhaps a 47.
The 264 intrigues me, as the 7mm version was just too much for me to enjoy it. Perhaps a 264 in a heavy rifle is a joy and would make we switch ranges to get out to 1,000 for the heck of it.
What does your bbl life average 264wm? I hear if you don't get them hot, they do much better, like a Swift.
Do you shoot 3 and stop, or 5? What contour bbl? Thanks.
