SAKO75: I have used the 100 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips in my Remington 700 VLS in 260 Remington for some time now.
A more lethal and accurate bullet on Deer, Antelope and Coyotes (from a 260) I can not imagine!
Please give the 100 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips a try also.
And indeed, in my heavy barreled Remington 700 VLS with Leupold 6.5x20 scope and the tall Harris Bi-pod attached - recoil, is about none existent.
Best of luck with your 260!
Hold into the wind
