I built my 260 Rem on a Savage 111 action, using a Varmint contoured CBI barrel (25"). I've got a Boyd's Pro Varmint Coyote Laminate stock. I also ordered real bottom metal for wood stocks from Savage. I'm shooting the 143 ELD-X seated out to 2.93 OG and I have plenty of room left in the magazine, and it feeds better from the magazine than if I single feed it.

It is a heavier rifle at 12-13 lbs.... Most of the weight being the barrel and stock.
