It's a very clear way to approach load development. One thing I would say when doing your seating depth test is to remember an important piece of context of his videos: he's shooting Bergers. He's...

OK back to it. You asked why not the CM. The only benefit in the 6mm or 6.5 CM in a short action is that they come standard from the factory with a faster twist barrel than the older 243 and 260....

90gr TNT or 90gr Nosler Varmageddons with 2206H, BM8208 or 2208 but you will use twice as much powder as the .223rem and the bullets are twice the price too. Faster bullets and more fast burning...
