[QUOTE="260shooter, post: 70379, member: 2988"] BTM: My Dad had a 260 REM IMP built this winter. Redding does carry the bushing neck die, you have to call Redding. If memory serves me the cost was $109.00. Bought a wilson blank with a 6.5 pilot hole and had it reamed with the same reamer used to chamber the rifle. The rifle is for F-Class and has shot several 5-shot groups 1" to 1.25" groups at 300 yards. Sierra 142's are running 2850fps with 43.5 gr of H4350. The ammo made with these dies is very consistant. I spun 10 of 50 on a concentricity guage and everyone of them was .0015 or less. We bought REM 260 brass and preped it all then weight sorted to get two large groups, each group being within one grain in weight. 238 pieces in one and 241 in the other. This is the 2nd Ackley I have worked with. Easy to load for, just fireform and load. My Dad actually shot fireform loads in a 500 yard match (140 gr BTSP) along with shooting steel plates at 1000 yards. Will be shooting a 1000 yard match at the end of May. I know the rifle will shoot well. 260 [/QUOTE]
