    The advantages of the Creedmoor are availability of good factory ammo and the case allows bullets to be seated closer to lands and still fit in the magazine.
    The latter being rather important for someone chasing the best accuracy from their rifle. The shoulder angle on the case should allow longer case life when reloading.

    260 has the potential for a tiny bit more performance, but not a huge amount.
    With cheap(ish) quality factory ammo available even in NZ, brass life and the COAL advantage, there's a few good reasons to choose the Creedmoor.
    And I'm a 260 owner.
