I went through the same thing a couple of months back. I had a tikka T3 hunter in 6.5 Swede and a Tikka T3 Superlight in 260. The long and short was that I liked the superlight more than the hunter model. I ended up keeping the 260. I don't think any animal you'll shoot with a 140 grain 6.5 caliber bullet will be able to tell the difference between the two. Good luck either way you go.
