[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 228610, member: 8843"] I say the 260 , it'll give you all the speed that you need and the long VLD bullets want and it'll feed fine from the LA. You can use cheaper and easy to find 308 Lapua brass , the smaller powder capacity and slightly more effecient case desgine will give you a little bit more barrel life. BUT If it were me I'd do with a 284 winchester or maybe a 280 Ackley and shoot the 180gr Bergers. You'll get a bit more barrel life and it' shoot a higher BC bullet out at the same speeds maybe a little faster realy extending your range especialy on game [/QUOTE]
