I downed a fine red stag on a private high fence ranch with my 30-30 carbine shooting Winchester 170 grain Power Point ammo. Two quick shots into the chest organs did the job. Both bullets went all the way through the other side and were not recovered. Distance was stepped off at 82 long strides.

Remington's 260 is certainly a good cartridge for big game. But I would opt for a 140 grain bullet.
