    I have another 6.5 Creedmoor, so that's main reason. If I still had 6.5x47L dies then it would be a little more difficult to choose... CM fits better in the short action compared with a 260, especially when I can't do anything with the mag length. If I could get a 3 inch mag then the 260 would make more sense given that I have dies and brass already.

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    @The Claw I tried cycling some 6.5x47 rounds thru the finnlight & they didn't cycle very well so it's probably not an option
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!
