Browning A-Bolt in 260 Rem?
Anyone seen one of these around? I don't know that Browning chambers this caliber anymore, can't seem to find one, but if I'm not mistaken they did??? Thanks for any info.

If you have found on Brownings site where they have a rifle chambered in 260, please let me know. I have searched the site and did not see any that were offered, perhaps I missed them??? If that's the case, great, my mistake, but I didn't see them there.

The current Browning website is probably a smart place to look, if you're interested in current products, however I don't know if it lists past products. I don't think the sarcasm is warranted considering it wasn't particularly relavent to the question.
I think its worth asking around since I'm sure they must at one time had the A-bolt in 260. Check out this link, if it works, halfway down they list a-bolt micro hunter calibers, for light weight rifles, but at least its a start.

If you got one you could call it dumb and dumber.
I've owned both and will never own an A-Bolt, or a rifle chambered for the 260 again.

Ha! I like it Chuck! Although gotta say I sure like the A-Bolts I own, to each their own.
Thanks for the link Prospector, I'll take a look there. Must have been some produced at some point as you can get the a-bolt clips for the cartridge.

RUM, are you looking for new, used, or either?

Either one, but looks like new isn't an option from Browning any longer. So if I could come across something lightly used that would be good, preferably in something other than the Micro Hunter.
