Norma now makes 260 brass and I've necked up 243 Lapua.

My next rifle will be chambered in 6.5x308 Imp.




I'm surprised at how little I hear of the 260 AAR (All Around Rifle) from 6.5 lovers.

Its basically a 6.5x57 AI, or a 257 AI necked up to 264 cal.

I'm strongly considering one on a intermediate Mauser action w/ a #2 Shilen.

Its between that and a 260 Rem.

For all the talk about the latter being on its last legs I think we're ok. It is one that has grabbed the attention of hard core LR shooters so there is little doubt in my mind that there'll always be factory brass available.
