I just picked this up used and have not even shot it yet. 22 inch SKINNY barrel. I don't even own a gun like this but, there it was, 260 Remington, Little Box magazine, mat bluing and pretty figure in the low sheen wood. OK, so I'm 60 years old and STILL impulse buy.
Anybody ever hunted one of these? I like the 6.5 for bc and because there is a good bullet selection including some AB's. I don't know what the factory barrel will stablize so any guidence will save me from buying the wrong bullets.
I bought NO factory ammo, but, now have my dies and 100 rem cases to start. I will go for White Tail through 400 in another month or so. I am also working up an antelope hunt with my brother for next year (another old guy).
Advice and comments please. If you know the gun won't shoot, be gentle. It IS a pretty little thing.
Thanks rc
