[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1006340, member: 55230"] Gotta know the application of the firearm and is it a repeater? Also being as its a SA, I'd strongly consider a 6.5creedmoor. I've heard from several that the 6.5c is what the 260 should've been, and the 6.5c is the 260 done right. If I were to build a SA it will be a creedmoor. The CM is a true short action round where as the 260 may be better suited in a LA. On that note, there is plenty of difference to split the lengths and go 28".I have a 308 cbi bull barrel and its not that thick at the base, and as stated earlier the shorter barrels will be stiffer. I would not hesitate to go w/ a 26" on this build given the case capacity. [url]https://demigodllc.com/articles/6.5-creedmoor-260-done-right/?p=4[/url] [/QUOTE]
