What do you define as better? Honestly your pulling obscure cartridges that can be made from the 06 case...im just being realistic.


To Sticks point...he is correct. I made an assumption that the OP had a 260 with a suitable barrel to shoot heavy bullets. If its not the case and won't shoot 140s or 160s than i retract everything i said about the versatility of his 260.

Ill stand by my point though that a 260 with a twist rate capable of stabilizing 140 and 160 gr bullets is suitable for everything that either a 06 or a 8x57 would be.
