Yes, they made them in .260 and they do show up for sale occasionally.
That being said there's more than one way to skin that cat.
Another option would be to handload the -06 with H4895 using the 60% of max charge formula and a light 125-130gr bullet or purchase some reduced recoil ammo. ( here's a link https://imrpowder.com/wp-content/upl...ifle-loads.pdf )I'm much more familiar with reduced handloads than factory reduced recoil but Remington claims 50% recoil reduction. My handloads for the grandkids are above minmum reduced levels for more velocity when hunting but feel at or below .243 recoil levels and also have way reduced muzzle blast. I've got to where I like to shoot them a lot myself.
My grandkids love to shoot reduced the .308 loads and will go through 50 rounds in one session and beg for more.
