I think that's it in a nutshell. Well said.

Also agree on the 260 and 308 Brass. Heck, I've got 1,000 pieces of Lake City laying around.

Comes down to picking one that "speaks" to you. I'm a sucker for the Creedmoor as I like its shape and OAL. I had a 260 that was wicked accurate with 120's and 125's, but wouldn't shoot 130's or 140's. Go figure.

Nice rounds, all.
