RE: Why did the .260 Remington not take off as a standard caliber?
Well I always wanted one...but they just didnt make it available in any of the more affordable rifles...such as the adl's, adl syns, 7600's 7400's. I would think thats a big part of it....Remington has standard calibers on the brains...they need to let some shooters run the company again rather than the bean counters. They are very stale on offering anything besides the norm calibers in anything but the higher priced guns. They also seem to be dropping a lot of the borderline popular loads like the 260.
