How does this compare to the Swede or 260 ?

Over a labradar my 24" barreled 6.5x 284 is at 2950 with the 140 EH and 2225. The 143 elxd had a good node at 3000 with RL 23 but the case head expansion on the Lapua brass was a little more than I like,the bergers where a more consistent in grouping and a little less pressure so Ill stick with those.
