OK guys, first, I'm good with the creed, but this is not a vs thread. I am set up to run the 6.5 already, but I stumbled upon a .260 for 400 before fees and that's hard to walk away from. Savage short actions give me a Lil more room for the cartridge and I can always rebarrel later if it doesn't work out. Most common bullets I'd run would be 100-123s, 140 (accubonds, elds maybe and ablr) and just for giggles the 160 rn. Not for anything competitive, just the furry stuff. Is there any number of good valid reasons NOT to get into a .260? Factory ammo is a non issue as I handload.
