Very similar ballistically. IIRC hornady is the only supplier of 6.5CM brass so if your okay being stuck with hornady brass and like the CM go for it.
I have been using Hornady brass for my .243 for quite a while. I have 7-8 reloads on my first batch of brass and it's still holding up. When I buy again I might switch to Nosler Custom but I have no complaints with the Hornady brass so far and I have not found one reject in the 150 cases I have purchased new.
As for the rifle if you own a short action rifle just get it rebarreled and HP shoot. If not savage or remington would be my pick.
My .243 is my only short-action rifle. That one will not be tampered with until the barrel is shot out.
