[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1213253, member: 12995"] My .308 Win does that...Regularly. Also, I do agree that the .260 AI is an exceptional cartridge, and one that I would like to build someday, but I don't think it's going to really beat the 6.5-06 AI in performance. Both cartridges can be equally accurate so that's not really a factor that you can consider in performance, IMO. Just like with a car, performance means HP, TQ, and how fast and efficiently it gets from point A to point B. The 6.5-06 AI is going to be faster, flatter, hit harder, retain more more downrange energy, and do it all with only about 15 more grains of powder. And if you factor in cost, brass is almost as cheap (and can be cheaper if you buy .270 Win brass to form). That being said, I am not saying either one is "better" cartridge than the other, because I like both cartridges, I'm just looking at it from a purely performance standpoint. [/QUOTE]
