[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 1986867, member: 78438"] start reloading now, any good ammo is expensive. All the cartridges you mentioned are just fine for shooting to 700. Do you plan to hunt big game or just shoot for fun? 6.5's are nice if you don't need the horsepower of a 7 or .30. Recoil is nice, muzzle blast is nice, lots of good high bc bullets, lots of cartridge choices. As much as I like to make fun of the creedmoor, it's a good little round for plinking and shooting medium sized game. I prefer the .260, but you can flip a coin on that issue. I really like the .260ai. The 6.5 saum or 6.5 prc will get you out there a little farther and help in the wind, but if your just shooting for fun tbe 6.5cm or .260 is probably the easiest thing to do, creedmoor has more support for sure. They all benefit from hand loading. [/QUOTE]
