I was a HP rifle competitor from about 89 to 03, after I made distinguished rifle ...
You sound like a shooter I knew from the old days. Mike L? Only guy I ever heard of with worse eyes than me!
I built a 260 hunter in the days before the Creedmoor. Thought that Dennis' idea was a niche product that wouldn't go anywhere. ...after all there was already the 260 that was a legitimized 6.5-08 and the new 6.5x47 which came with Lapua brass. A couple of years ago I shopped BassPro for ammo. Couldn't find a single box of 260 to buy. But there was tons of 6.5 Creedmoor to be had. Boy did I get that one wrong!
Yep, you pegged me. Not only can I not see but the arthritis is whooping on me. Did you shoot HP in NC? Wish I was still able to compete.
