Have a read of http://www.accurateshooter.com/guns-of-week/gunweek046/ this is an old article and I believe Terry just goes with the std 260 Rem these days.

I've thought about a 260 Improved a lot, but I'm now on my fifth std 260 Rem barrel. If you want more oomph, go with 6.5 x 284.

had the 260AI on 700 trued with stc mag etc. no problem feeding, just did not give what I expected so went 7-08AI and found great results.

None with the Acis mag but two repeaters, 1 Remington 700, and 1 Borden Alpine. I shoot 123 AMAX and 123 SST's in both and have no feeding issues at all.

I built a 260 AI (clone of terry cross rifle ) Surgeon 591R , AI 1.5 stock OACL with berger 140 vld is to long for AIC mags . Terry indicates this in his article . Lapua 139 are suitable and will work . I built a rem 700 and had whyatt mag box installed on bdl bottom metal and works well with all bullets . Hope this helps ?
