I don't think many of the suggestions above have a 24" tube, save for the Faux and the Weatherby?

It's odd to me this doesn't seem to exist. It seems like the perfect combination for a 260 rem/6.5 Creedmore. Maybe most folks don't mind losing 100-200fps?




A faux-Ti is just a stainless Mountain Rifle 700 barreled action in a Ti-style Bell & Carlson 2950-series stock. It looks much like the original 700Ti rifles, except for the fluted bolt. I put one together and it was a dandy .260 rifle.

And I highly doubt an extra 2" of barrel on a 260 or 6.5 Creed will add 100-200fps to the velocities realized by a 22" barrel. 100fps would be pushing it, as these are fairly efficient chamberings.
