Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Why/How does the Creedmoor out run the 260 & 6.5x55?

My favorite long action 6.5mm bore cartridge is the 100 year old 256 Newton. Another 6.5mm bore cartridge that failed due to a variety of hurdles that it was unable to overcome. Its only claim to fame may be that it was probably the catalyst for the 270.
