Yobuck I have yet to hear what you feel outshoots a 260 so vastly better? What bullets did your buddies use that failed? Because everything I've heard and seen about vlds shows they do the job long range. Frankly over 1000 yrds is really pushing it. There are too many factors against you and yes over 1000 yrds you need more bullet but on a deer sized animal it really isn't realistic for very many people to try. I think most of us are considering the 500-1000 yrds window. I would have to guess you would need something along the lines of a 338 Lapua at 1000-1500 yrds shots but I haven't researched shooting that far yet.


I agree with the majority . 260 rem or 6.5 creedmoor any day.
