[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 1998716, member: 14435"] I have both the 6.5 and the 260ai. For any type of match I would run my CM, hunting or plinking the 260ai get the nod. No question if you shoot factory loads the CM is the better way to go. Handloading just the gain in speed is the only real advantage of a 260ai. A CM pushes a 143/144/147 around 2780-2825. The 260ai is 2880-2950 with the same bullets. Both without showing pressure and good case life. I tried some 121 warner flatlines, high bc and I could run them pretty fast before pressure signs hit, the cm 3120 and the 260ai at 3200. With that BC and speed they should make a good long range plinking round. [/QUOTE]
