Spotshooter,

Good to know--though I have not "abandoned" either the .260 or 6.5x55. In fact I keep killing stuff with both.

But unlike many Campfire members, my job is NOT to resent any new cartridges. Instead it's to evaluate them, to the best of my ability. And have owned four 6.5 Creedmoors, and extensively shot three others. Sorry, but my conclusion is that it is indeed an improved .260--or 6.5x55.

Whether or not that makes any difference to you is obviously irrelevant, both to my professional life and your personal life.

The thing I don't get is the anger toward the 6.5 Creedmoor. From what I've seen, even on the always-aggressive Internet, nobody is DEMANDING that anybody give up their .260's, 6.5x55's or anything else and buy a Creedmoor.

If that's happening to you, would appreciate knowing who did, and will ream them out myself!
