OK, I’m bored.
This isn’t really a .260 Remington Vs. 6.5 Creedmoor question. It’s more of a why question.
Why did the Creed take off in such huge popularity while the .260 kind of lags behind?
I was recently shopping around for a .260 and I had lots of gun dealers tell me the two are ballistic twins.
In my research it seems that the .260 has a very slight fps edge over the Creed.
Maybe the .260 has more of a following than I realize. But everywhere you look someone is talking about the Creed. It seems all the major manufacturers are now chambering the 6.5
I don’t see .260 ammo on the shelf but I’m starting to see 6.5 everywhere.
The .260 was introduced, I think in 97’ It had a huge head start over the Creed but never seemed to take off like the Creed.
Why do some cartridges take off when others of equal performance struggle?
Anyway, just some thoughts.
Happy Friday everyone!
