Here's something that is funny, not 260 or 7mm-08 but still a good story. Last year before rifle season here in PA one of my hunting buddies gave me a raft of sh*t about hunting with a 6.5x55 Tikka T3. His logic was that one day I would forget my ammo and when we got to the mountain there wouldn't be any on the local gunshops shelves.

Well as it turned out we forgot the bring the bag that ALL of our ammo that very season. It was left on the counter in my garage as we were packing. Sooo.....we took a ride to the local gun shop the first day after unpacking and he just so happened to have a box of 6.5x55 Remington 140gr Core-Lokt on the shelf. However he didn't have any .35 remington or .25-06 which are the rounds of choice for my two hunting partners. That afternoon we had to take a 1.5hour ride to the closest Gander Mountain to pick up their ammo. HA!!!!


Enjoy the hunt while it lasts!
