[QUOTE="Ski, post: 472138, member: 28658"] It doesn't make sense to me to post such a thing, unless you are specifically looking for some sort of argument from folks. There are different style shooters, (thank goodness) and some simply don't want the kick your tag suggests you shoot. But to say it only looks good for punching paper, you couldn't be more off base. It'll handle whitetail, mulies, antelope, and even elk to a certain degree. I have a 260 and have several one shot kills ranging out to just under 500 yards. I also have a 7mm-08, a 7 rem mag, a 30-06, a 300 wsm, a 300 win mag and enjoy shooting them all. Having said that, I'm not afraid to carry the 260 when I'm hunting. I don't punch much paper, but I'm guessing it would be easy on your shoulder.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
