I built this one for my Wife, Brux 24 inch barrel with 1 8 twist. It really shoots 120 gr bullets good.[email] [Linked Image]


I have close to 1000.00 into it. You cant build one cheaper than that.

Buy a 6.5 creed and ream the chamber. Not enough demand right now for the 260, sadly.

Wolfdog....

I can tell you, rifles and reloading, (I don't do it), can be an expensive hobby. You talk about a $500 build which is impossible, then a scope, then new dies, etc.

A guy with lots of rifles and a truck that doesn't run isn't good. Save your money for the rainy days ahead.

Not trying to pee on your parade, but just sayin.

Hay a guy can make a wish list right lol ? Was hoping someone had a factory rifle for that much like a axis or patriot. Not really interested in just a completed build

Remington did. I don’t think anyone does. 260s are fantastic. Dads got a fancy 700 and I got the kids a M77 compact several years ago. They are both great.

I had mine built well before the Creedmore was though of. No target no problem shoot a piece of paper then shoot the hole you just made.

Built it on a 700 action with 26" pac nor national match 5r barrel. Wears a Leopold mark 4 6.5x20x50. most accurate rifle I have ever shot.
