[QUOTE="Tulie, post: 477429, member: 29064"] Very timely post for me. I just agreed to pick up a 260 AI from a buddy of mine. Personally I think the 260 due to its high BC and SD bullets is mighty close to a standard 270 at longer ranges. I know it doesn't have the initial velocity but at the longer ranges the BC lets it nearly catch up and energy is not far behind the 270. As for the AI version I don't know what the velocity will be yet but guessing about 100 fps increase it will even be a better long range performer for deer and antelope level of big game and really great for varmints or a tactical match. Personally when it comes to elk, oryx or larger animals I'll stick to something with quite a bit more pop. [/QUOTE]
