Looking at calibers etc and pretty much always liking something a bit different
though the .260 Remington (a 6.5 - 08 I think or there abouts)
looks interesting ..yes i know 7mm 08 or 6.5 x 55
So please dont go of on the you want this X cal instead
if i do it will be a first FAC application and as most my Dorset FLO would probably want to hold me down to a .243" ( cause its obviously a lot safer )
and yes its a good cal and available every where
but think pushing up to the 260 should be reasonable
So any good new of the shelf rifles ( I assume a limited second hand market )
And reloading seems to be a good option with 6.5mm heads and up sizing .243" cases
no ive not reloaded before but the engineer in me is looking fwds to the process
but is Factory ammo reasonably available in many options ??
