I have bugged Mossberg for some time to get the public an affordable rifle in .26 caliber. I love .26 calibers and would like to show them that there is support for the idea. Please vote if you like the idea.

I wish more 6.5 x 55 were out so maybe more ammo choices !

I agree. My brother handloads for his .260. Makes quite a difference. I had a 6.5x55 some years ago until I gave it to my brother. Big mistake. ;D I find the .26 calibers to be the best all around caliber for 90% of all lower 48 hunting. IMHO I love it. I have begged Savage for years to chamber it in their 110 or 111 models. No luck. Now I am trying to start a campaign to tempt Mossberg....

What is even worse is that both Mail Order Outfits here do not show any Remington rifles chambered in 260 Rem.
