[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 2190684, member: 36999"] Well the biggest reason for me was the rifle and barrel availability first and foremost. When I built mine in 2019 my options were a $670 6.5 PRC proof prefit or an $1100 custom chambered proof barrel. Additionally I was planning on my dad and brother also getting a rifle in the same cartridge but since they don’t hand load the PRC checked all of the boxes. If I was only building a rifle for myself now I most likely would have went for the .264 Win Mag with a Carbon Six barrel I’m not sure the planning on the .260 was good either since they hampered it with a 9 twist. Remington is very good at designing cartridges with an Achilles Heel and then leaving them to die in obscurity. At this point I’m pretty sure the .260 only survives on Creedmoor hate. [/QUOTE]
