[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 584046, member: 13"] You can try a 12" 260 Rem or 7-08, but I think you are going to be displeased with your overall performance. You might as well go with a 6.5 BR, 7mm BR, or 6.5x47 Lapua. They will do as good of a job/same velocity as you would get with the 260 or 7-08. An 06 case size would not give you the velocity you wanted and would increase recoil needlessly, as a smaller case will will have the same velocity for that short of a barrel. Straight wall cartridges do not run at the same pressures that most bottleneck cases do and have a larger bore diameter. [/QUOTE]
