[QUOTE="B23, post: 1075644, member: 13222"] I'm a big fan of the 260 Rem but with the case capacity of a 260 Rem AI and the 6.5x55 being pretty much identical, Lapua 260 brass cost $94 per 100 and isn't always in stock while Lapua 6.5x55 cost $67 per 100 and requires no fireforming, why would you go with a 260AI? If the OP was building on a SA, to me, it would make more sense but considering this is a LA build, why go through the extra work and expense of improving the 260, which in my opinion, gains you very little, when the 6.5x55 will do anything the 260AI can but with no added work and cost. Everyone has their favorites and I completely get that and if that's your choice because that's just what you like, cool, but if there is another reason, I'm all ears and I would welcome the opportunity to learn something new.
