[QUOTE="BoilerUP, post: 810877, member: 32369"] There are plenty of folks over on Sniper's Hide running 20" 260s reporting 2700fps +/- with 140s. There's one guy with a 18.5" 6.5 Creedmoor that gets 2640fps from Hornady 140gr factory ammo, and two others that have 16.5" 6.5 Creedmoors that get 2550fps with 139s and 2750fps with 123s. Here's a 19" 260 that really set my mind: [url=http://forum.snipershide.com/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/127491-my-new-19-260-shorty.html]My New 19" 260... Shorty[/url] His 28" 260 ran 2850fps with 142s and 43.0gr H4350, and the same load in his 19" 260 went 2650fps. He bumped up to 43.5gr H4350 and hits 2700fps with the 142 or 140gr Hornady BTHP, and 2725fps with the 140 A-Max. [/QUOTE]
