I am somewhat interested in this gun - in 260 rem... Has anyone shot this rifle, if so, opinions please!
Also, has anyone seen the gun on the shelves anywhere??? I havent as of yet...
It would be a great deer/plinking/long range gun IMHO!

This was one of the rifles I gave serious thought to for a coyote gun in .243. Bought a M-70 in .243.
I never fired one, but I handled them at Epps. Front heavy due to the heavier barrel. If I had more disposable funds I would probaly get one just to give it a go. Another fella who has one here on CGN says his was "scary accurate".
 
I have handled one at a gun show a while back and did find it a little heavy at the front as previously mentioned. I did like the feel of the rifle. Epps has had a few for sale in the 204, 223 , 260 Rem and 6.5 Creedmoor. The 260 & 6.5 didn’t last too long on the shelf...
 
I have one in .223 and like it. I've only done load development with the 60gr Noslers so far. I'll try some 69gr bullets (recommended weight) later on this year when I get a new scope for it. As was stated, it has some weight to it.

I'm the guy with the "Scarey Accurate" Max 1 Predator. And yes, with the Nosler 70 varmint bullets, my rifle is phenomenal. For faster action, I only load 3 into magazine.

Not sure of 260 Rem, but know that mine in .243 is a keeper.
