[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1949720, member: 67552"] Not sure I saw a budget up there, but there are a ton of options from $300 to $3000 in the 260, 6.5 Creed, or 6.5 PRC. Lapua makes brass for the Creed and 260 so that is no problem. So does Rem, Federal, Nosler, Norma, Star, Etc. so you have options in all price points. I shoot all three of the above mentioned and really like them all. The Creed and 260 are basically the same volume different shape and will perform exactly the same to 500 yards. The PRC is a different animal and a noticeable performance boost, especially with the heavier bullets. There are already some great factory rifle options, the factory ammo is however, very limited as is availability of brass right now. I am pretty impressed with how fast it will push 130s and 140s still loaded to fit a short action magazine. It's a tough choice to be sure. Whatever you pick, as long as you are happy with the rifle, I'd bet a paycheck you'll be happy with any of those cartridges. [/QUOTE]
