[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1956891, member: 67552"] When talking about the .264, 6.5 Rem Mag, and even the .260 they were all ahead of their time and components, and for that matter the internet. They did not have bullet options close to what we have today. Everybody didn't have a chrono or doppler. And if a gun scribe said a cartridge ate barrels and was to explosive it was doomed. Part of the reason some of these 2.0 cartridges are so successful is they get the advantage of hind-site and can fix the shortcomings of say a 9 twist that the .260 started with, and the .264 for that matter. And while there are alot more custom gun builders now than there were 25 years ago, most folks still go to their closest gun selling outlet and buy what's available in that store. I thinks both will remain and the PRC will never catch the Creed. [/QUOTE]
