[QUOTE="lovdasnow, post: 334300, member: 5082"] Mikecr: i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that you don't like the 6.5x47;) i have been reading a lot and still can't find very good info on barrel life for the 260 or 6.5x47? some say 2000, others say 3500. that's a pretty big spread ya fireforming is out. i know myself to well, and i know i don't need any more steps to an already tedious process. i would rather go shoot. man, i don't know why this is such a tough decision for me. i was getting pretty settled in on the 260, and then just had a long conversation on the phone with a very knowledgeable guy who steered me toward the 6.5x47 pretty hard. i do like the idea of factory lapua brass for the 6.5x47. so that is a pro. so. what round would perform the best, with good barrel life, from a 22-24" barrel?
