[QUOTE="grit, post: 250772, member: 4112"] The 260 will push the 140vld to 2900fps. The bullets bc is .640. The 7-08 will push a 140 vld to 2950fps. The bullets bc is .509. The 260 bullet will dramatically outperform the 7mm bullet at long range. To get a 7mm bullet of equal bc you have to jump to the 168 grain. Velocity falls to 2700 and recoil increases substantially. I'd stick with the 6.5mm calibers. It is a superb, if underrated family! If you want a lighter bullet the 130 accubond would be tough to beat. My opinions are based long range performance. If long range isn't a concern, the points are moot. Anyway, enjoy the shopping and research. I sure do! [/QUOTE]
