Default RE: Factory loads for 260

The .260 Rem shoots a bullet only .007 greater in diameter than the .25 calibers. Thats about twice the thickness of a human hair. Everyone considers the 120 grain bullet in a .25 caliber to be sufficient for deer. It should work in a .260 Rem as well then

I don' t believe winchester loads the .260, Federal I believe loads only the 140 bullet and Remington has a 120 and a 140. I' m reloading so I shoot the 129 grain.

Grab a box of 140 grain and go hunting. When the season is over learn to reload....you' ll love it!
