[QUOTE="338Rules, post: 1701393, member: 32094"] Not to put to fine a point on it, but it seems like you’re looking for something that isn’t there. The CM has a slight capacity disadvantage, but handles the longer 140s better in a true SA magazine length. Factory twist is 8” . The 260Rem started out with a slower twist for 120 and 130 grain bullets. No one seems to mention the reduced case taper wrt smooth feeding, so that’s a wash. Ammo availability and economy goes to the CM. Reloading with quality brass nullifies that. Personally, if I had a T3 8” in .260 , I’d be sorely tempted to re-chamber it to a 6.5x280AI-30 ; And Never Look Back [/QUOTE]
