[QUOTE="Heavyiron, post: 1494918, member: 95875"] Well, i never got on the creedmoor bus, but have a lot of experience with the 260 rem. I have owned and used the 260 and also the 25/06. Both are fine rounds. I can not pick one over the other. I made my longest shot at 390 yards with a 25/06, soo a lot of it depends on which gun you like the most. True 6.5s have more streamlined bullets, but the 06 round will take me as far as i care to shoot. Famous gun writer Bob milek took elk at long range with the 25/06 and the nosler partition bullet. Right now flames are being fanned over the long distance to shoot a 6.5 on game. True they do retain energy at very long distances, but how far should people shoot at game. That is the 10 million dollar question. Will a 6.5 creed take game at long distances, yes it will. This debate over shooting game has, at very long distances to be worked by each individual, and their own skill level [/QUOTE]
