I’m sure I mentioned a 260 somewhere on here but it generally likes to stay in closet with all the other 6.5’s. It’ll come out one day when it finally realises it’s really just a 270 in denial.

Yea, I’m used to making do with what I have living remotely but the one bit of extra kit I have is a #2 shell holder so no biggy if I have to modify one for the 270 leaving me a spare for the 260....

Thanks for the useful feedback. I do recall now the gunsmith saying that it was on the limit of minimum headspace. Will go over it again tomorrow with fresh eyes. Didn’t think I’d strike a problem at...
