[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 317043, member: 13833"] I hunted with a 6.5-06 A.I. for years and killed close to 30 head of elk, lots of deer, a few bear and one moose. It is a fantastic rifle and with a good 140 gr. bullet is far more capable than most people realize. With a 26" barrel (which I consider minimun) It will drive a 140 around 3100 accurately. Barrel life is good although I have recently rebarreled mine with a 6.5 Sherman which drives a 140 at 3200. The .260 is a GREAT rifle, but for what you want to do, go with the bigger punch!.....Rich [/QUOTE]
