[QUOTE="scottishkat, post: 1117004, member: 82202"] All of my 260's shoot the 140 accubonds 1/2 moa with H4831SC. The 260 is better built in an actions longer than 2.800 inches. I am not aware of the action/mag length of the Tikka if its the same as the Sako I would go with the 260. If you are set on a short action the Creedmoor is a better short action cartridge. That said there is not a noticeable difference in either cartridge. I have switched from the 140 NAB to the 120 NBT or the 120TSX for hunting deer with my 260's. I found the 140 adequate but the deer acted like they weren't hit when shot with it. They did not travel far but IMO they are better suited to the 6.5x284 or 6.5-06 and faster cartridges. Good luck and shoot straight Bob [/QUOTE]
