I think that you might want the 1-9" as it would be a better option for shooting 80 grain TTSXs and who doesn't want the option of going faster along with deeper penetration? Its amazing what a 1" of ROT difference makes. Being 1-9" hurt the 260 'cause it wasn't the 1-8" Creedmoor. 1" of ROT, 0.115" of case length, and poor marketing is most of the difference between a flash in the pan and a generational cartridge.
