[QUOTE="akhtr, post: 2070087, member: 22314"] I shoot both 260 and 25-06 I would say in a Savage 260 would be better the 1-8 twist over the 25-06 1-10 makes some not all 25-06 rifles not as accurate with bullets over 100 grain. Now if the barrel length on the 260 is less than 22” velocity will suffer. All that being said hands down 7mm-08 is better than the other two. 1st easy to load with light bullets to get recoil down plus higher ability to down load for less recoil. 2nd if you look at velocity 120 he bullets are traveling the same speed as 25-06 120’s. 3rd bullets above 120 ie 140-175. Once croon graphed you won’t see much difference between 7mm-08 and 270, 280,260 ect. In the 140 grain bullet range but you will feel it. [/QUOTE]
