Hello Everyone,

This maybe wishful thinking, but I would love to get my hands on a .260. I am looking for both a hunting/stalking rifle and a target/benchrest rifle.

Let me know what you have.

Thanks!

There's a couple of 260's listed here but there's also a sweet All Weather Winchester model 70 in 7mm08 that you should consider.

For what it's worth - I recently bought a Savage Model 10 Predator Hunter Max 1 in 260 Remington and it shoots 1/2 MOA or less on the targets I've shot out to 300 meters. If there is a aspect to the rifle it would be the weight - it is not light but boy does it shoot. I also have two friends who have the same rifle and those shoot just as well. One fellow shot a 1" group (3 shots) at 300 meters with hand loads consisting of 100 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets and Varget powder. This is the rifle I would recommend looking for.

Dieselman (John),Is a good friend of mine and a very good competitive shooter. He has .22's costing thousands! If he says a Savage is a good shooter, then I know I may want to look at one myself. Steve

Not mine but if you're a "Lefty" seems like a great deal;
