I have shot both and enjoyed both. For now I have settled on the 260rem and like I said in another post somewhere else, if I need a heavier bullet I grab a different rifle.

One thing is for sure though, I would never be without a 6.5cal rifle, be that 260rem or Swede. With two boys growing up quickly, I figure the 6.5 is spot on for those grasshoppers :-)

Experience is something you get, just after you needed it.
