    Been thinking about a new rifle. I shoot left-handed so my choices will be smaller. I like the Tikka, and considering a 260. Want something I can hunt deer with and some 3 or 400 hundred yard shots at the range. Is there anything I am missing? I think the 22-250 would be too small for deer.

    DPMS 260H or 260L

    260 is exactly what your looking for.

    I would not recommend getting a 12+ LB rifle if you are looking for a hunting rifle. Lugging that around the woods is going to get annoying real quick. I'd stick with the Tikka if you are looking for a hunting rifle.
