[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1239164, member: 10178"] Way back when Remington came out with the 260 in the 700 my buddy got one. You could not even get ammo for it at the time and there was no load data out yet. We treated it like a wildcat and ended up with H4350 powder cases made from Remington 243 Winchester cases, CCIBR2 primers. We used Sierra 120 gr and 140 gr soft point bullets. It was a tack driver and we were doing crop damage control in east NC. That season we killed 50 deer with that rifle using both bullets from on top of us to a little over 500 yards with no problems. 49 of the 50 deer dropped in their tracks. The one that did not only took three jumps before pilling up. So you see it does not have to be the latest wiz=bang bullet to come down the pike. If the rifle will shoot and you learn how to shoot it the 260 Rem is a deer killer. :D [/QUOTE]
