Is one ballistically better than another?

260 will probably be a little faster, maybe 50-100 fps

The 6.5CM has a shorter case so that you can seat the heavy bullets longer in a mag for something like an internal bolt gun mag or AR type mag without intruding on powder capacity.

If you use AICS mags without the front plate or TRG/AX/AT mags the 20 works just fine though.

260 is a bit faster. 6.5cm is easier to find loaded ammo, and loaded ammo is generally cheaper. in my experience, 6.5cm is also easier to do load development for
