I have one in .223AI. It’s in a walnut mountain rifle stock anyway.

I know 7mm-08 and .260 were among them but I had never seen .308 until recently and a couple have popped up.

I know the .257 Roberts was one and so was the .280. I passed up a Mountain Rifle in .257 Roberts 22 years ago because I already owned a Bob. Back then I thought I wouldn't own two rifles in the same chambering. I've never seen another one for sale since. Duh.

In 1998 I ordered a .280 in the walnut Mountain Rifle but the BDL model turned up instead. I should of sent it back and got the Mountain rifle but I was young and keen so kept the BDL. Another duh moment. And again, I've never seen one for sale since.

I have the 280 and 270 models. I thought the 280 was going to be hard to find when I got it, but there is actually quite a few that come up for sale.

I don't think that the blued/walnut 700 MRs were made in 260, but the LSS and TI versions were.

I have always made it a point to ignore all of the 700s with DMs.

My buddy has the .25-06 and was the first one I got my hands on and fell in love with the way those rifles feel.

The blued/walnut Mtn rifles were discontinued after 1992 which was before the 260 was introduced. There is no 260 listed and I have all the M700 paper catalogs.

243W
25-06Rem
257R
270W
280Rem
7mm-08
7x57
30-06
308W
Not all of these were offered every year. When first introduced I believe they were only offered in 270, 280, and 06.

edited to add: I forgot about the DBM's.

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively...

Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.They did not vote them out of office, nor did they impeach the king,march on the capitol or ask permission for their rights. ----------------They just shot them.

Like everything, they’ve fallen back to earth. Have seen some good buys on them recently.
