[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 84788, member: 3733"] sewwhat89, I recently put a pac-nor #7, 26", in 260AI on a savage action. The barrel is a 3 groove 8 twist. Also added sss trigger, recoil lug, new stock floated and bedded. I wieght sorted rem brass, cleaned up the flash hole, and put together a "genaric" load for fire forming. 139gr lapua scenar over 46gr rel 19 seated .005 into lands. This load is very mild in my barrel and produces 2750fps. the 2nd 3rd and forth shot went into 3/8" @ 100 yards. I have not finished fireforming yet but am very pleased with what the rifle is showing me up to this point. Two weeks ago I was shooting dirt clods in a picked soybean field out to 725 yards, in a stiff wind. At that distance I could spot my own shots and once windage was corected it was easy to make hits. I chose this caliber/contour because I was looking for good performance, conservative powder usage, good barrel life, low recoil(without a brake), and quality bullet selection. I'm not disapointed. With your statment of 600 yard max, you wouldn't be disipointed either. [/QUOTE]
