.260 based on a .308 case, runs in a short bolt action. .270 based on a 30.06 case, needs a long bolt action.

Ballistics on the interwebs.

Thanks for explanation.

Short action makes sense weight wise.

Accuracy at long range is dependent on lots of variables. Barrel twist, length and bullet ballistics.

It is far more complicated that fps and bullet weight.
