[QUOTE="window licker, post: 1632257, member: 49560"] I owned a 6.5 creedmoor, a 260 in an AIAW, and a DTAgen2, a custom 6.5x47, 6.5-284, and 260AI. I saw no advantage with any of them over the other. I settled on the .260AI for an all around hunting and field match gun. If it were just a target rifle, I would go with the 6.5x47, I have found that the most consistent of the lot. They can all win in the right hands. The buzz comes from the over the counter ammo, which hornady, and prime got right. Not a hater of the creedmoor, but it's just another round pushing the 140 in the 2750-2850fps range. * yes you can over pressure the **** out of it and go faster, but, like the rest, it seemed to work well in the velocity range mentioned above.
