Ouch...that thing kicks
Hi All,
I'm hoping to have my chassis rifle (Tikka) later this summer and truth be told, if I can get it in .260 Rem, that's what I'm gonna do. If that's not an option, my fall back will be the 6.5 Creedmoore and I'm wondering if any of you have done a head to head comparison on the small vs. large primer brass option (Lapua) with the 6.5 CRDM? If so, can you share any thoughts? Were the ES/SD numbers any better with one primer vs. the other? How 'bout the all important group size?
Lapua brass ain't cheap and a box of it will last a while with the number of cycles I'm used to getting out of it. I want to make the right choice out of the gate if I get the CRDM.
Thanks!
