Well here it is, the long awaited .260 Terminator

[Hawkeye Pierce]

After over a year in the making, here it is from Defensive Edge the .260 terminator.

Parts list:
Manners EH-1 carbon fiber stock with mini chassis, ( I think) that was the first part.
Lone Peak Fuzion Ti Medium length action,
Hawkins bottom metal medium,
Hells Canyon Summit Contour carbon fiber wrapped barrel 23.5 inch,
Trigger Tech Special trigger,
APA Little Bastard muzzle brake Gen III,
Inflection Design magazine
Glass and piller bed, chambered with +P throat by Defensive Edge.

This was initially designed for the Sherman 7 max being the medium length action but it will be able to push the 6.5 140 gr beyond 3100 I believe with the extra room. The scope is just temporary the vortex Razor HD Gen II 4.5-27x will be replaced with the HST 4-16 for hunting. Total weight before optics just over 6 lbs if the scale is to be believed.
I will get the pictures of the groups as they can be loaded.

Beautiful rifle! Can't Wait to see what it can do. I love the standard 260. I'd love to see what it will push the 156's.

So might be deleted by a couple days, lol i might have 2nd degree burns on my elbow and wrist. They're small but on bendy parts of the body.

Haha...I couldn't figure out how this would be "deleted" but then I figured out that you meant "delayed" after reading into the context of the post.

I've not heard of the .260 Terminator?
Wondering if it's similar to my .280 Pasture Poodle Punisher?

I personally have taken numerous elk with my 6.5x308 wild cat ( built 1994 ) & the Barnes 120gr "X" bullet. 22" bbl @ 3004 fps. Have since bought a Savage 260 Rem which has also taken several elk with the Barnes 120gr TSX. Still shooting both. A truly underestimated cartridge. Still shooting both. Perhaps the Terminator 260 is a bit different??
