[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 919798, member: 8833"] At this years SHOT show Remington announced they will be producing the .260 in 2014 in their SPS line, 24" tube with 8 twist. I have a Savage in .243 and it is a good shooter using 95 gr bullets. It just doesn't handle the wind after 400 yds. This is a problem because we get wind 364-1/2 days a year. After a couple thousand rounds out of a .243, when this barrel goes south, it will get a new .260 tube. Besides, you may get a chance to come out west someday to hunt and the .260 will handle anything we have. I'd go .260. [/QUOTE]
