My thought would be for a person unfamiliar with the weapon and perhaps drop, a 260 would be a fine choice. However for the person that wants to shoot a bunch a 308's barrel life should provide plenty of entertainment. Did I mention I have a rifle chambered in both? smile


Right on! That heavy .308 of mine has 4000+ rounds through it and still shoots in the .2's and .3's.

Luck....is the residue of design...
