The 6mm Creedmoor is a necked-down version of the 6.5mm Creedmoor using 6 mm (.243 inch) bullets, lighter than 6.5 mm bullets with similarly reduced recoil. [30] John Snow at Outdoor Life built a 6mm Creedmoor rifle in 2009 for a magazine article of the wildcat cartridge that appeared in 2010, but the first documented conception of the 6mm ...

When the dust settled, the 6.5-08 would be called the .260 Remington instead of 6.5–08 A-Square. The 6.5-08 cartridge was created simply by necking down the .308 Winchester.

I can find no information that even implies that the 6.5 Carcano was a direct developmental model for the 6.5 Creedmoor.
