    I think the 260 would have another 8 to 15percent more recoil then a 243win. Its the same case so its just a bigger projectile right.... It is a wind cutting machine. Im running the old nxs 5.5-22x56 with the npr2 reticle. it got glass thats good enough for me. The reticle is not the best when calling corrections with the 5moa wind hashs. But you get there in the end. i find i can only spot shots from 400yards when i muscle the rifle a little. I free recoil so im not the best at spotting my shots. The newer nxs with the moar-t ret would be the go. 833 yards mate. im sure the neighbours were worried.
