Default RE: Why did the .260 Remington not take off as a standard caliber?

i've got to admit, when i went looking for my wife a rifle the first gun i thought of was a rem model 7 in 7mm-08, since i already had my encore pistol in 7-08. well found a model 7 s/s in 260 from a friend that gave me a sweet deal, it has become my favorite carry gun, as far as what remington has/is doing look at the short action mags, i mean win. has killed them, i like the 7mm saum rem. has but what about brass 10 yrs. from now and all the win short mags are taking off, i love the rem's i have, but sometimes i feel like they (remington) just drop the ball. i also bought a rem 260 barrel for my encore. i love the 260 and have kept as much brass as i can, i really hope this is not one that falls thru the cracks
