[QUOTE="scottishkat, post: 1094293, member: 82202"] All I have a Sako 85 in 260 Rem that I am interested in re-barreling. It's kind of the odd firearm out I really like the 260 and own 3 but the 22.5 inch barrel has a handicap effect on the round. The magazine has plenty of length I can load to approx 2.950. I would be reloading for it so no concern there. I am considering the above cartridges in a 24" tube. Main uses will be deer and targets. With the 260 AI I would go with a 1 in 8. What twist would you consider with the 7mm-08? Any recommendation on a good smith in VA area and barrel manufacturer would be appreciated. Shoot straight Bob Mac [/QUOTE]
