Thread: 260

Greetings All,
I have been having a bit of a chuckle over some of the posts in this thread. Yes I do realise that not all posts should be taken at face value but I offer the following regardless.
Deer have actually been killed without the aid of the latest wonder projectile. Simple projectiles with a lead soft point and a flat base do not bounce of deer hair and whine mournfully into the distance. Projectiles with a G1 BC of less than 0.5 do not fall harmlessly to the gound 30 metres in front of the muzzle. So in answer to the OP 120 grain projectiles will do just fine where the 123 grains have worked in the past. Rifles in .260 Rem often have short magazines and slow twist barrels where the shorter projectiles cause less difficulty in loading.
Regards Grandpamac.
