[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1615809, member: 68875"] The .260Rem is a fantastic cartridge. I had one for a long time. I run a 6.5SLR myself. (.260Rem w. 6.5x47L neck/shoulder). I just rebuilt my old one after 2300+ rounds in about 4 years. Not PRS volume, but a lot more than 98% of rifles will ever see. With a 1:9" twist, I would look at the 130 Berger AR Hybrid myself. That bullet could get to 2950 depending on barrel length, high BC, very accurate and easy to tune, and whoops on game like Mommy Dearest. You could also look at a magnum like 6.5SS, 6.5SAUM, 6.5WSM, .264WM, etc. and wring the speed out of a 130 and stretch the legs out of it. [/QUOTE]
