[QUOTE="Eric Alexander, post: 2031783, member: 89813"] there isn’t one. It is a fine round but not better than the .260 Rem, The .260 actually a a bit of an edge but not enough to quarrel about. 6-5 pick ‘em. Not sure what other tried and true rounds you might be thinking of. The 6.5-284 will smoke both the Creedmore and .260. Between the CM/.260 and the 6.5-284 is the Swede, 6.5x55, as tried and true as they get. Modern loads really wake it up. Little known in US but a favorite in Europe is the 6.5x57 Mauser, a necked down 7x57. It sits between the Swede and 6.5x284. Then come the 6,5-06 and variants, AI and Sherman. Lastly, staying with the .473 rim is the new 6.5 RPM by Weatherby. Lots of options and they all work, just decide on action length, handload or not, and $. You’re in the land of choices. [/QUOTE]
