[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 459025, member: 29890"] If i were you id use the 110 270, same boltface as 260 but if you want those speeds without excessive case pressure and wear your better off with a 6.5x284 norma. McGowen is a good company to get switch barrels from, i got mine in 3 weeks mine was a 28" 10 twist 270 wby .800" taper polished stainless and it was only 330 after shipping and its very accurate. you can get a matte black 26" for 280 shipped. id go with a 26" 8.5 twist and use 130 grain scirrocos, accubonds, or 140 partitions for big stuff. even the 140 partitions have a .490 bc. if it doesnt have an accutrigger get a Timney it'll go down to about 22 ounces, use a bell and carlson stock, and get you a wolff extra power firing pin spring (32lb). with that said you will have an awesome rig, personally i have different scope opions but that one will do, so you would be just under 600$ then you could order 2 boxes of Norma ammo and have some break in and toy rounds and 40 good cases! The same will work for a 260 but its no where close power wise. [/QUOTE]
