Yes, the reason far more long-range target shooters are using .260 Remingtons rather than the 6.5x55 Swede is that the Swede "absolutely kicks the .260 Rems ass in this catagory (sic)" I know there are other issues involved in this department, but there isn't a critter on the planet that will know if it's been killed with a .260 or a 6.5x55. I'd love to add a 6.5x55 Swede to my collection, but for now I'm settling with my two .260 Remingtons and they harvest deer as reliably as anything out there.
