Have accidentally acquired a Model 7 Rem in .260, what am I gonna do with it? Just how good is .260 anyhow?, maybe I Ai it, looking for input from you lot that fool about with .260 and it's variants, tell me about 6.5 284 and 6.5 06 too, have another rifle I could go down that route with.
Terrific, jam a 140gr amax on top of a case full of 2209 and go forth
I would try shooting it, it might even kill stuff tho it is only a limp wristed 6.5mm so be careful ,Mabe start out with a possum ?

To be fair, the trajectory of your preferred caliber, forms the perfect limp wrist.Quote:

Was gunna ask if the bay is still fishing well. 30 lb????? Fucking nice fish even for the knuckle draggers up north😆
Mite come up after the roar for a few days. Waiting for sneeze to sort a house so I can bludge a bed. We my go to Kenepuru as well.
Few snaps being caught here off the beach so I will have a go tomorrow.
Salmon will be quiet till the next fresh.
You know I love the .308. I just can't find a scope with enough elevation to justify getting another one😆

Shall pm to save whats left of the poor mans thread
I've got a mod 7 in 260 with standard 20" barrel.
It's a pretty handy cartridge. Ive just started playing with the 130gr Berger VLD. Ive got them doing 2875fps, run the ballistics on that and you'll be quite surprised how much energy it holds out to 600 -700 yards.
Awsome rifle and cal just shoot the thing
I just tried ordering a model 7 in .260 to hear it won't be available until next year's production run, wanna sell it?
I have a stainless one in .308 with a cropped and threaded barrel if you feel like I need saving from it, priced very reasonably too........Quote:

The 130 LRAB ballistics looks pretty promising also.Quote:

Try a 129/130 gn pill on top of 46 gns of RL-19. About as good as it gets in the little mod 7 carbine.
