[QUOTE="matt_3479, post: 933764, member: 23070"] If your going to be hunting then the 300. winny is a great round! plenty of good factory ammo and when it comes to reloading if you go with a 1:10 twist barrel then the 210 and 215 bergers make an excellent long range killer or match rifle! As for the 6.5 creedmoor i don't know if its just were i am but the availability of brass and ammo aren't as popular as some other great round out there and is the reason i have pushed it along even though i considered it myself. Performance wise the 260 has the same ballistics as the 6.5 creedmoor and there is more commercial ammunition and more available brass for reloading (remington, nosler and Lapua). Plus you could go with a 260. AI instead gain a few FPS over both calibers and still shoot factory 260 if all needs be. [/QUOTE]
