[QUOTE="farout, post: 890537, member: 39061"] No difference in recoil to notice. Amount of recoil difference between these two rounds would depend more in the weight of the rifle they are shot from than anything else. Both are fairly mild recoiling cartridges. The main difference inn these two cartridges is the case. The 260 is a necked down 308 case that has been around for years. The Creed is a more modern design with a slightly shorter case that has a little less taper and a steeper shoulder angle. Factory ammo is easier to find for the 260 in a sporting goods store. You probably won't find Cred ammo in a store, they will most often have just the cases for reloading. The great thing about the Creed, ammo wise, is that Hornady makes some very good match grade ammo for it that is affordable. Hornady even has the load data on the box. [/QUOTE]
