Iv never being fussed about chasing speed so once I find accuracy that's where Im happy 18-20'' dpt hand loads
.260s sounding like the one for me smaller and more suited to my meat hunts on farm yet still stretch reliable

you will probably find you MUCH MUCH better off with monos by going as light as you can get them for calibre.....eg in poohseventy the 110gen is the best......its a balancing act way more than with cup n core...you dont need mass/weight as it doesnt shed weight...you do need speed as speed/spin help it to open up properly when you do the maths the lighter round starting out faster isnt caught up by heavier round untill you get out past point n shoot range for energy and thus terminal preformance.... thats my take on it anyway.
oh and 6.5/06 just cause its differnt
