Interested in the Hornady brass

What I don’t get is that the specs say 15 moa of windage  yet that equates to approx 4.4 mils?

Not certain whether marketing hype, the next Gucci calibre or availability was the key to it all.Hornady pushed it from the get go…Remington never seemed to bother as much.

I dare say it will happen again with another calibre…in the meantime does anybody know where I can get some new 260 brass? Need to stock up lol

You are missing the point…I never dissed 6.5 cm as it is undoubtably a fine calibre .There is no doubt that good marketing has contributed largely to its success as in all the years I have owned the 260 I have only ever seen a couple of boxes of ammo on the shelf at a dealers .I bought one at such an exorbitant cost that I could only bring myself to  shoot 2 rounds off and the rest are still in the cupboard.If I-was going down the 6.5 route today I could well imagine a different outcome due to the availability…particularly as Lapua have just discontinued making 260 brass for the foreseeable future.

You could argue all day on ballistic differences as there is not a lot between them 

Have owned a 260 for 15 years or more in various guises …many rounds gone down range bagged a few deer with it and nothing has convinced me to swap. 
Have rattled targets out to a lasered 1200 yds with 107 grain matchkings at Warcop witnessed by a current member of the F class team GB.

Not really an opinion…just solid evidence gained over many years and a good few thousand rounds

260 the way to go though it is not the commercial success that 6.5cm is purely in my book down to marketing or a lack thereof.

Think he may have been extracting the Michael myself though he could have mentioned the ELR capabilities of 17 HMR

Will contact you tomorrow
