I hunt mostly with my 270 model 70 fwt pre 64 but the op didn't ask about the 270 and his desires are with three other cartridges. There are so many great cartridges out there that will get the job done it comes down to personal preference. -
260 Rem- 6.5x55- 7mm-08
I also believe any of them would serve you well. My personal preference would probably be the 6.5x55 because the action length isn't an issue the swede gives me a little more case capacity to play with. Having said that one of the few rifles I own that I don't load for is a Tikka because it... -

Non-Jerky Duck Recipes?
I haven't prepared one in quite a while but I always like to soak or marinade in a slightly sweet white or zinfandel wine and stuff the cavity full of chucked up apples and roast it. Not much of a recipe but it was always good.- Southwind

2016 Kalistan Buck
Cool buck, I had a big 3x3 whitetail with really good mass I should have taken last year but he showed up first day of archery season and could let one fly yet. Wish I would have he was regressing I had seen him for three years prior and he was a 4x4. Well done. -
6.5 Crredmoor or 7-08?
You can load your heavier bullets out further not sacrificing your case capacity and still mag feed. Remember the 2 elements of design was based around the 140 grain Amax a vld bullet and an AR10 magazine where your max coal would be 2.81 I wouldn't tag any of them mo-better than the other... -
6.5 Crredmoor or 7-08?
It wasn't just marketing for a cartridge without need. There are a ton of 6.5 wildcats even among the modern the 260 Remington was once 6.5 A-square. The 260 Remington 1n 1997 100 years after the 6.5 x 50 Arisaka which is in the same ballistic family. The 6.5x55 arrived even earlier in 1894 also... -
