308 vs 30-06 family accuracy

[LRRPF52]

+1 on the .260 Rem for barrel life and a match gun, versus barrel life not being an issue with an ultra-light hunting rifle. With both, you can have the barrels melonited once confirmed that they shoot or before, which will increase the throat/barrel/accuracy life about 30%. It's hard to argue with .264 Win Mag performance, but within 500yds, the .260 will be more than sufficient. Switching to Hodgon's powders in the .260 took it from a consistent .75 MOA shooter down to .4 MOA for me, as I was using Vihavuori 500 series before that. Hope I didn't burn my throat prematurely...

I'm actually getting ready to take a .260 hunting on Friday, as I couldn't get a permit for my Grendel in time (I'm in Finland for the holidays.).

Bob, do you think that Ackleying the .260 helps with accuracy?
