260 140 Berger Hybrid Velocity?

[Autorotate19]

Going to load some 140gr Berger Elite Hunters up with H4350 in a 260 I just picked up. Was wondering what kind of velocity everyone is getting with that combo?

Thanks

Unless you've got a barrel longer than 26" or you live on top of some tall mountain, if you want to get many reloadings, 2800-2825 is going to be realistic.

I loaded some up and according to my drops at 900 my velocity is 2775 out of a 22 inch barrel. Load isn't showing pressure but that is with virgin lapua brass. Accuracy is awesome. 1/2 moa at 100 sub moa at 900.

What was he powder and grains if u can share. Or at least powder and starting point

Its a pretty warm load so work up. I have them seated about 20 thousands off the lands. I think they measure around 2.860 coal. 43.5 grs of H4350 win primers.

I get 2900 with a 140VLD. 26"Krieger on a Remington trued action. 1/4 inch gun @ 100 yards. Shoot out to 1300 yards regularly. Awesome round!
