Look at the ballistics. The 260Rem is just slightly faster than the Creed. Best thing about it is that its the same bolt head as 308, 243, 7mm-08, ect. More or less its just a 308Win necked down. Pretty simple barrel swap if so desired or needed for any Remage, Stevens or Savage 10/110 type rifles. I just find it interesting the 260Rem never saw a fraction of the popularity even when compared to 7mm-08. Came out about 10yrs before the Creed.
Like i said, it does basically the same thing but uses a far more abundant parent case. Fits in the same size action. Hunters must have gotten a lot dumber in the 10yrs to fall for all that marketing. The vast majority will never make use of the only advantage the Creed offers with the heaviest of bullets.
