I have a dream. In this dream, I'm out in the middle of nowhere. It's winter. At first glance, it's a peaceful, quiet snow-scape. Then you see a slight movement out of the corner of your eye. You look, but there is nothing.
Oh, but there is. Out in the distance, I am wearing my whiteout suit and caressing my snow digital XCR-M, hidden safely among the drifts... awaiting the encroaching zombie horde.
*gurgle*
I'll be in my bunk.
ETA: Like this.. only.. you won't see me.

brain fart, whats up withh the .260 and .240 barrels?
why is it so important?
Nice, Wally. I'm sure they'll never guess that you've already wet-spotted over it...![]()
Drift and drop are the two big ones a .260 does less of both. Compared to my .308 .260 will have 20" (33%) less drop and 5" (25%) less drift at 500m with a 10mph cross wind. At 1000m it drops 270" (30%) less and drifts 45" (32%) less.
Then there is reduced recoil which helps with being able to follow your own swirl and call your own shots as well as making radip follow ups easier.
So it will fit in a short action, will feed from .308 mags, has mild recoil, ballistics to match 300 Win Mag, decent barrel life, costs the same as .308 to reload, and there are lots of bullets to choose from including great match and hunting bullets.
I am not seeing to many downsides which is why I was thinking of building an AR10 in .260, but if this XCR-M is going to be non restricted I could also hunt with it.

Oh no! What? What happened?
in .308 and reasonably priced, that could be my next hunting rifle (replacing a norc m 14s!)

You know... People keep saying it looks FAL-ish... But if you change the stock and extend the forend, it looks a lot more G3-ish, to me.
