Snapshot Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Say helllllo to my little friend! I was impressed with the ballistics of the .260, compare it to the 30-06 ballisitcs and you will be surprised. Its a good gun for deer& antelope but not really for elk. All the calibers everbody mentioned are very good. But if you want a smaller specialized shooter you can't go wrong with a .260 based on what I have read. I have no first hand experience with that caliber.

wbyfireman Report post Posted February 13, 2009 some on this board obviously havent been in a sporting goods store in quite a while!!! ALL QUALITY hunting ammo now days is going to run you at least 40$ no matter what you shoot. Yes reloading helps, but if you want the best ammo from the shelves it is going to cost you a ton of loot weather you shoot a 260 or a 30-378....... and from my experiences Weatherby ammo is really tough to beat in terms of quality and consistancy.
