My vote is for the 7mm-08 myself and I have the 308 also.I just went to get a Savage 16 in 260 and find they have stopped chambering it [:' (]bummer! I wanted one and now I' ll have to get one of my savages rebarreled.I think the 260 like most of the good 6.5' s will slowly fade out and fail to catch on as this caliber never clicks in the US for some odd reason.The 7mm-08 is the best deer caliber I have ever used bar none on our northern deer.I just stopped posting and looked,the 260 is only listed in one model Ruger and the Remington 700/7 rifles now.I guess customs would chamber for it but hardly any factory rifles still being made for it. Hmmmmmmmm.............wonder why this is happening?Must be the 6.5 curse at work again.
