[QUOTE="dgr416, post: 1791003, member: 1208"] I used the 260 this year for hunting and love it way better than the 243 I am going to make this rifle out of .I have two savage model 11. 260 rem and a ar10 260 .I have shot clover leafs at 100 yards with all these guns with the lapua bullets 155 grain mega tip .I started using it in my 264 win mag and it shot the same .I already have a Nikon 4×16×50 mm on my 338 win mag I could steal off it .I use to make 400 yard shots with that 338 win mag ruger all the time with a 3x9 Nikon but not these days 6.Its think this tang safety ruger 77 in 260 will be my last deer rifle I am 57 now if I add 33 years like the 338 I will be 90 .I probalky ought to get some real 260 brass it might make a one hole group then. The lapua 155 grain mega tip is grooved so lesd pressure. I have pushed it to the limits in my 264 win mag and the 260 . There is only 200 fps difference in the two just not worth the difference to me .I can't wait to get this gun made .I used the 243 a little while but lost two big bucks with it .I trust the 260 way more .i will try this gun on some hogs first then deer next year .
