[QUOTE="wff68197, post: 916297, member: 77165"] I recently picked up two new 260 Rem rifles and hoping someone can help with a bullet recommendations for both. I am new to the 6.5mm so have none on the shelf to start with. I've already picked up brass and have a good bit of 4350 powder I plan on starting with. Any recommendations are appreciated. The first rifle is a heavy 26" barrel 1 in 8 twist that I will only use only on the rifle range. Looking for something to shoot paper out to 700 yards. My main concern with this rifle is only accuracy. I was looking at the hornady 140gr sst, but open to any suggestions. The second is a hunting rifle with a 22" barrel that is also 1 in 8 twist. This rifle will only be used in whitetail and occasional varmint hunting with ranges out to 400 yards. Most of my hunting rifles I shoot in 30 cal are primarily barnes ttsx. Should I stick with the barnes in the 6.5mm or any other suggestions? [/QUOTE]
