[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2206397, member: 1521"] Yeah, if your focus is on velocity, let's say over a 260, then you could just step up cartridge capacities to 6.5x284. 6.5-06, or 264wm, etc. But none of that is, or about, improving. True improving begins with a specific bullet, and building a cartridge through entire system around it. This, with considerations more broad than single attributes, as no single thing amounts to improvement while it compromised another. If I consider 260 -vs- 260AI, it's not MV that I would choose 260AI for. It would be result potentials scored across a table that compelled me to go that direction. An overall improvement. If you scored cartridges bigger/smaller, this brass/or that, small/large primer, sizing/trimming need, powders available, bullets available, barrel lengths, gun weights, use range, etc., you may find that one cartridge stands out as best for the bullet. And that cartridge is not a factory offering. You will have to make it. A wildcat. [/QUOTE]
