260 Rem minimum barrel length

[gazzar15]

I have read with interest the thread on the ideal barrel length for 308. I am wondering what the optimum barrel length is for a 260 given that I wish to use it for targets to 1000 as well as hunting.

Hi Gazzer mine is a trueflight 26" and shoots extremly well i was told 260 is ok with a 20" barrel but not sure if this applies to shooting 1000yrds but they say what ever a 308 will do so will a 260
