I have been looking for a new rifle in 260 Remington. It seems the best of the 6.5mm choices.
I am a handloader. I am looking for a walnut stock, detachable box magazine, and perhaps stainless barrel.
I am willing to make comprimises, but it seems that many factory options are in short supply. You pay less for 7mm-08 or 270 or 270WSM.
It seems like .270 or .257 options are easier to find. Even the 6.5x55 SE seems elusive or overpriced. Why have rifle makers avoided .264/6.5mm?
