Remington failed with the 260, like they did with the 6mm, 280, and with the various short magnums. 260 was introduced with 1 in 10 twist, a twist that would not stabilize the 140 grain thumper that they promoted. No target rifles introduced,and no match grade ammo.
It seems to have survived on its own anyway. I have a model 7 ss t hat has used 120, and 129 grain bullets from the start.precision is more than adequate. Long live the 260!
