I dont think it's that similar. With tikka tubes, i'd expect less than 2600 FPS with a 20" 6.5 creed and factory hornady 140 ELDm. I'd expect 200+ FPS faster with a 6 Creed 108 ELDm with similar barrel length.
My 20" 243 Tikka is pushing the 103s a little over 2800 fps in 85 degree weather. I haven't finalized load development yet, but I know I can get over 2,800 fps.
I would expect a 20" Tikka 6CM to generate similar velocities with the same powder charges.
