[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1235487, member: 12995"] Jud, we don't disagree on much, but if you look at actual tested numbers instead of interwebz conjecture, the .260 AI still outdoes the 6.5 Creed by a fair margin. Not by a ton, but it still remains king of the castle. According to Travis @ RBros rifles, he tested all the 6.5's, and the .260 AI gets 125 fps gain over the 6.5 Creed, both rifles with 26" barrels and the same 140gr bullets. I know we're not supposed to really link other forums, but this is relevant to the conversation. See post #3... [url=http://www.longrangeonly.com/forum/showthread.php?1878-Which-6-5-so-many-choices]Which 6.5 , so many choices?[/url] And yes, according to his test, the standard .260 Rem and 6.5 CM get identical velocities in identically setup rifles. And the 6.5x47L is only 50 fps short of the rest... [/QUOTE]
