[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2411491, member: 103947"] Correct it's not. Not really sure what the apples to apples comparison would be. For me it wasn't really about any comparison, it was simply a decision based on some practical factors. Same powder capacity, slightly lighter bullet offering less recoil but faster flatter trajectories able to accomplish the same end result in anchoring an antelope. I couldn't think of another option equal or better to accomplish that goal. Nothing in a .244 bullet does it with equal case capacity nor a .264. Getting into the .277 or .284, same result. It wasn't until the .257 heavy bullets were offered before I could make that choice. Sure I could go bigger on case capacity but settled on what I had lots of brass for already. The .260 being the second choice. [/QUOTE]
