[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2318516, member: 95344"] My 260 AI is almost finished but I'm expecting 150-200 fps more velocity from it than from the 6.5x47. But that come at a cost of more powder and less barrel life. The beauty of the 6.5x47 Lapua in my mind is it using less powder. Loads in the mid to upper thirty grain range will get a cartridge that'll do what the OP wants out to 500 yards easy. The 6.5x47 has me taking a serious look at my 6.5x50 Ariskas in a different light. I have one that was given to me sporterized. I'm thinking I might be able to load it to near 6.5x57 loads. [/QUOTE]
