Im still looking for a Hornady 260 modified case. They are over due at Midwayusa and every were else I can find. They usually run from 6 to 12 dollars. If someone can find me 1, I am willing to give that person a 20 dollar reward!

I've made my own before. Take a case fired in my gun, drill and tap. The best part is the modified cases are I believe to SAAMI specs where home made ones are to my rifle's specs. 5/16x36 tap if I remember correctly. I'll keep my eye out for you in Mississippi.

As popular as the 6.5s have become the last couple of years you figure Hornady would be cranking them out. I had problems finding a modified case for my 264 Winnie last year.

I drilled and tapped my own case for a 7 STW. With the cost only being about $5 for a Hornady one, not worth the trouble unless you can't find one.

I honestly care more about TIME than money. I just really dont want to fool with it. I could drive to my gunsmith and have one made, but would rather pay a REWARD for a 260 modified case.

I was looking around the web and could not find any in stock, however, you can send hornady your brass and they will modify them for you. I read in another forum that it is 15 dollars to have 2 pieces of your brass converted.

This is copied from Hornady's website.

"If your caliber is not listed, any of your brass, including all wildcat sizes, can be custom modified at our factory for use with either gauge. Please call a support representative at 800-338-3220 for more information."

Thanks, called Hornady before, they said they were" Behind and working to get these out to retailers". They will only make you one IF yours is not currently made by them. They make a 260 it just backordered. Thanks for you help though.

He's cleared for re-entry now. Just gotta make sure his landing and future travels are in line.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.
