[QUOTE="Tex_Hunter, post: 2037856, member: 31749"] Since you mentioned antelope out west I'd go with speed for the longer shots that often present themselves out there (I hunted speed goats in Wyoming and the closest shots were 300yds). You want fast and flat. I am one of those social outcasts that shoots a 6.5 Creedmoor, but with the list you mentioned, it would be hard to beat the 6.5PRC or 6.5 GAP/SAUM for the intended quarry. Since you are a 260Rem aficionado I'd also recommend the 260AI as a close second, as others have already said. I almost had a 260AI built for my trips to Wyoming but ended up going 280Rem instead since those trips also include a chance at Elk and Muleys, that and I am already getting 99% of the performance of the AI with my 6.5CM running Alliant RL16 so adding a different case didnt make sense.
