wow! I was always under the impression that the older cartridges were somehow inferior to the more modern loads in terms of accuracy.

thanks i figured there would be a pressure issue with the 260 round in your experiences how well does the 6.5 perform out to 300 yards?

first off Im new here and a relative mauser noob ive got a few mausers in original condition all in 8x57 but i have a turk 93 that is a good candidate for sporterizeing. I originally wanted to chamber it in 260 remington but ive read that it may not be safe in my action but 6.5x55 has similar performance in a safer package. I wanted to know the experts opinion on this. thanks
