[QUOTE="Schnyd112, post: 1432931, member: 90453"] Yes. I tried to run a .260 at mag length and was giving up too much. I was having to seat 142 smk’s so deep I was limited to less than 44.5g 4831sc. Loading to mag length, at least for me, took the juice from my .260. I was struggling to break 2700 FPS with 28” of barrel. You can run a 6.5x47 at 2750 with 140 class bullets all day with Varget. I went 6.5 creed and wish I would have gone to the lapua. Everything Creedmoor is more expensive. Dies and brass are $20 over the 6.5x47. [/QUOTE]
