only problem i have with creedmoor is the fact that i cant see how it is superior to the comparatively ancient .260
I can think of two (2) reasons why the 6.5 Creedmoor is superior to the comparatively ancient 260 Remington:
1. Rifle manufactures are cutting their 6.5 Creedmoor barrels with the proper 1-8" ROT. 2. Ammunition manufactures are making accurate factory ammo, so the guy who doesn't reload has access to quality ammunition.
3. The Creedmoor was designed with throating and case geometry such that sleek VLD bullets could be seated so they weren't jumping a mile to the lands, so that the case mouths aren't over the ogives of the seated bullets, and so the loaded cartridges would fit into and feed properly from a 2.8" magazine length all at the same time.
