[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 133512, member: 8843"] I'd rebarrel it , maybe a new stock and heavier trigger for hunting , you could probably seel what you have to buy new stuff like the stock and trigger. You already have money invested in the Blueprinting of the reciever(I assume) that'll be money lost if you sell it. A new barrel in 6.5mm 1-8 twist will get you to the 1000yd targets with several rounds , and from what I hear deer are not a problem out to 600-700yds with the 260 or 6.5-284 In fact I was looking at the balistics of the 175gr SMK out of a 308 and the 140gr A-max out of a 260 and the 260 beats it hands down in power and trajectory , I would not hesitate to shoot a deer at 1000yds with my 308 in the angle were right so I guess the 260 would do as well or better , on paper anyway [/QUOTE]
