[QUOTE="rhamilton, post: 876485, member: 49097"] I have a 260 and a 25-06 love them both, I don't know much about the 6.5 creed but with its spreading popularity it wont be long before it is just as easy to get components for as the other two. My personal opinion is the 25-06 because of how flat it can shoot out to 350 yards with almost every bullet offered for it, (if you hand load) and there would likely be less hold over to 500 yards when compared to the 260 shooting 140's, however if you run the 100 grain a-max in the 260 it is tough to beat out to 500 yards. The only thing I don't like about my 260 is I am always fighting OACL in the mag. But if all you were going to do is punch paper one round at a time it is tough to beat. So I would look at what you would be doing with the gun most. Bench rest I would go with 6.5 Creed or 260 Rem, yotes 25-06 hands down. Just my opinion though [/QUOTE]
